“Peter Strange has championed men’s health for quite some time and he has done a brilliant job holding down the Men’s Health Clinic on his own.
“I look forward to helping develop the clinic, including offering skills training to GP registrars. Having a doctor in the clinic means we can supervise junior doctors who are training in this space.”
Dr Haris said BCHS plans to build on the clinic to become a Centre of Excellence for men’s health.
“I’m looking forward to seeing men come along to the clinic to discuss their health issues, particularly if there are things they feel they can’t discuss with their current GP,” he said.
“Likewise, if other GPs are not comfortable working in this space, they can refer their patients to us, and of course patients can also book with in us directly.”
The clinic’s services include:
- Male physical body concerns, testosterone, and steroid use
- Hair loss
- Prostate health
- Urinary problems
- Penile and testicular concerns
- Sexual difficulties, including low libido, erectile problem, and ejaculation problem
- Sexually transmissible infection (STI) counselling and testing
- Cardiovascular (heart) health
- Mental health
- Alcohol or other drug problems
- Intimate relationship issues and family violence
- Immunisation (except travel vaccines)
All men are welcome to make an appointment on 5406 1200.
