Wellness Appointments


It's time to prioritise your health and wellness.

A Wellness Appointment gives you and your GP space to have an open-minded discussion and create an individualised wellness plan.

Are you feeling a loss of control? Anxiety? Feeling sluggish, tired, stressed, and needing some guidance towards a healthier and happier life? Our new holistic wellness check-up package is just what you’re looking for. Our Care Team is here to support you and take a comprehensive, evidenced based, holistic look into your health and wellness.

From the moment you walk into our clinic you will feel a sense of peace and zen. We intentionally created our medical centre to make you feel calm and relaxed, allowing you to be in the best position to receive comprehensive holistic healthcare.

At Next Practice Prahran we believe in working with you to achieve optimal health. This means not just being free from illness or injury but having a sense of overall wellness and happiness in your day-to-day life.

With the support of Nurses and Patient Advocates, you and your doctor will start with an in depth discussion and assessment of your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. You are the leader of your own health journey and we are here to guide you to better health.

The wellness check-up package consists of 3 comprehensive (40+ minute) appointments to Next Practice Prahran.

1) Discovery

Your first visit will focus on gaining an overall picture of who you are and your lifestyle. The doctor will ask questions to learn about your goals in life, your health goals and what is most important to you. Together you will also investigate medical and social factors affecting your health and wellness. At the conclusion of your first visit, you will leave with appropriate referrals and tests required for you to complete before your next visit.

2) Understanding

Your second visit (about a week later) will focus on reviewing test results and discussing what they actually mean for you. You will also spend time accessing your mental and emotional wellbeing and touch on nutritional and other preventative medicine benefits that can improve your day-to-day life.


3) Transformation

On your third visit we will tie it all together with a holistic summary and plan from your doctor. This plan will reference the 4 pillars of health (nutrition, exercise, relaxation, and sleep) and include preventative medicine techniques, copies of your test results, a list of relevant local and online resources and provide you with your next steps to achieving optimal health.

Every wellness check is individualised so this means that at any point in time you and your doctor may decide to vary this structure and work on what's best for you. After all, it is YOUR health and wellness.

If appropriate you will be offered an ongoing monthly check-in appointment where you can meet with your doctor to reflect on your journey and progress to better health.

So, it's time to take check in and ask yourself, how am I feeling? Could I feel better? Am I achieving optimal health and wellness?
