Health & Wellness

Ilam Medical is a General practice, or family doctor surgery, providing primary health care and support within standard weekly work hours.

Outside of these hours we are supported by the After Hours service that can ensure you can get the support and care you need 24/7!

It is important to us that you can access healthcare services at all times. Ilam Medical is open for care from 8.00am - 5.30 pm weekdays. If you call our number outside of our normal hours, your call will be answered by a nurse triage service who can guide you as to what to do... alternatively you can go to the After Hours Service

Ilam Medical is committed to supporting people to quit smoking and remain smokefree. It can be a difficult time and we want to offer as much support as required.

Sexually transmissible infections are commonly called STIs for short.  STIs are infections you can get if you have unprotected vaginal, oral or anal sex or skin on skin contact with someone. STIs can be serious and may not go away by themselves.

The Boostrix and Flu vaccinations are both important ways of managing diptheria, tetanus and flu and are available for all adults, in many cases free especially for our older population

As a general practice, a significant part of our role will see us help you negotiate life and health as you age.
Many of our patients have been with us over a large portion of their life and as older people we are committed to the best care we can provide in this stage.

If you are planning an overseas trip, there are many considerations of the potential risks associated with mode of travel, accommodation, activities abroad, local disease patterns and prevention of problems. We suggest having a consultation especially if you already have medical challenges, and or are travelling to areas where diseases are more common
