Skin Checks
Regular skin checks are essential for detecting skin cancer early. Our doctors are experienced in examining, diagnosing and treating skin conditions, and can perform minor procedures when required. Early detection saves lives.
Iron Infusions
Feeling tired or lacking energy? You may be iron deficient. In some cases taking iron supplements orally isn’t effective or can’t be tolerated. Our GPs can offer iron infusions (IVs) directly into your blood stream.
