All of our GPs have a special interest in women’s health. We offer full, comprehensive Women’s Health checks as part of our service.

There are many common health issues that Australian women face on a day to day basis, such as:

• Menstrual problems, menopausal problems, vulval pain, breast concerns, libido problems
• Mental health issues, including depression, eating disorders and anxiety
• Fertility issues
• Domestic violence
• Sexual health and contraception
• Pregnancy, Antenatal Shared Care, breastfeeding issues
• The Station on Tanti prides itself on giving its patients quality service where the time is taken to listen carefully to their concerns and help them find solutions.
• Pregnancy testing
• Cervical screening (previously known as Pap smears)
• Implanon insertion and removal (contraceptive rod)
• Sexual Health advice

We provide management of your family planning, pregnancy, breastfeeding, sexual health, menopause and fertility issues. We can refer you to our local Obstetric and Gynaecological specialists as needed for comprehensive management.

We also offer some niche services with our GPs offering Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives such as Mirena and Implanon insertion. All of our GPs provide cervical cancer screening pap smears.
