We would like to advise that we are now offering Prolonged Health Assessments at CCMC
The assessment will give you an understanding of your current health, can help to set up treatment plans for any existing health conditions, and will also help indicate on which areas of your health or lifestyle that you need to improve.
At the end of the assessment your GP will compile their findings and recommendations into a 10+ page report for you to keep, as well as providing you with any referrals to do additional testing or see to specialists.
Included in this assessment is:
Body measurements taken – height, weight, BP, pulse etc
Pathology blood test including levels of cholesterol, diabetes, liver, kidney disease, prostate cancer
Hearing assessment
Vision assessment
Lung function assessment
Skin check
Lifestyle assessment – mental health, family medical history, current lifestyle
Resting ECG or Exercise stress test
60 minute doctor appointment to review the above and discuss any additional areas of concern you may have
This assessment is completely covered by Medicare for patients aged between 45-49 years old, and patients 70 years and older.
It will take approximately 1.5 hours to complete. Due to the length of the booking and the amount of testing involved, we require 3 weeks’ notice to book these in.

Prolonged health checks play a crucial role in identifying potential health issues early, ensuring timely treatment and improved outcomes. Regular screenings help maintain overall wellness and encourage individuals to adopt healthier lifestyles. In addition to medical examinations, maintaining a clean and hygienic environment is equally important for preventing illnesses. Using high-quality cleaning products, such as Lemon Myrtle Disinfectant Spray, can help eliminate harmful bacteria and reduce the risk of infections. By combining thorough health monitoring with effective hygiene practices, individuals can create a safer and healthier living space, ultimately contributing to long-term well-being and a higher quality of life.
