LET'S BE HONEST

Most men wait until something's wrong. It doesn't have to be that way.

For a lot of men, the doctor is somewhere you go when there's already a problem. The trouble is, the conversations that actually change things tend to happen before you feel anything at all. The stuff worth catching early often builds quietly, with no warning you'd notice on a busy week.

A men's health check is simply the chance to get ahead of it. When a GP knows your normal, they're far better placed to notice what changes. And you shouldn't have to feel like you're making a fuss for getting checked. That is exactly what your GP is here for.

Your men's health check: get a clear picture of where you stand.

A Well Man check is an unhurried 45 minutes with a GP, and you leave with a written report and a clear plan.

If you've been looking for a men's health clinic in Paddington, the Well Man check is where most men start. It's a chance to go through the things that matter at your age, pick up anything worth knowing about early, and give you a baseline you can actually act on. Bring as much or as little as you like. Nothing is compulsory, and you set the agenda.

It's also the front door to more thorough preventative care. If it's worthwhile, your GP can step you up to the full 90-minute medical and lifestyle assessment: a deeper look at your heart and cardiovascular risk, body composition, energy and fitness, and where your health is headed for the years ahead. The goal isn't to find problems. It's to understand where you are, act on anything that's worth acting on, and help you keep performing at your best for the long run.

What a Well Man check covers

  • A brief history and whatever's on your mind
  • A review of your heart, blood pressure and cardiovascular risk
  • Examination of heart, lungs, abdomen, and prostate and testes, as required
  • STI screening, as required
  • A mental health and wellbeing check-in
  • Pathology (the bloods)
  • A full written report with clear recommendations

The things men don't always bring up. Bring them here.

Some things are easier to ignore than to say out loud. You won't get a raised eyebrow here, just a straightforward conversation and a plan. Here are the ones men raise most.

Erectile dysfunction

More common than most men think, often a sign of something else worth checking, and very treatable once you talk to your GP.

Prostate health

Waking more in the night or a change in how you wee is worth a quick, no-fuss conversation with your GP.

Energy, sleep and mood

Low energy, broken sleep or a flatter mood often have something treatable behind them, and the bloods can find it.

Who's it for?

Looking after your health looks a little different at every stage of life. Whether you're a young dad, in the busiest stretch of your career, or enjoying retirement, a men's health check meets you where you are. Here are a few of the men we look after most.

Men playing the long game

You've finally got time for the things you enjoy, and you want to stay well enough to keep doing them. A men's health check keeps an eye on your heart, prostate and the things that matter at your age, with a steady GP who knows your history and helps you stay independent for years.

Working Well Professionals

You're in the busiest stretch of your career and your own health has taken a back seat. You feel mostly fine, but it's been a while since anyone properly checked. A men's health check gives you a clear baseline and a plan, so you can keep performing without it catching up with you.

Young Fathers

You've got young kids and not a lot of time for yourself, but you want to be around and well for them. A men's health check is a simple way to get a baseline, sort the small stuff early, and stay on top of your health, with a GP you can keep as the family grows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in a men's health check?

A Well Man check is 45 minutes with a GP. It covers a brief history and your current concerns, an examination of your heart, lungs, abdomen and (as required) prostate and testes, STI screening as required, a cardiovascular risk assessment, a mental health and wellbeing check-in, and pathology. You leave with a full written report and clear recommendations.

How much does a men's health check cost?

A Well Man check runs for 45 minutes, with shorter standard appointments and a longer full medical and lifestyle assessment also available. A Medicare rebate applies to many consultations, and every fee, including rebates, is published on our fees page.

Can I see a GP about erectile dysfunction in Paddington?

Yes. Erectile concerns are common and very treatable, and they're often linked to other things worth checking. Your GP can assess what's behind it and talk you through the options in a confidential consultation. You can raise it as its own appointment or as part of a Well Man check.

Do I need a referral?

No. You don't need a referral to see a GP or to book a Well Man check. Book online through AutoMed or call reception on (02) 9072 1660.

How often should I have a men's health check?

As a general guide, once a year works well for most men, and more often if you have specific risks or something you're keeping an eye on. Your GP will let you know what suits your situation.

Is it confidential?

Yes. Everything you discuss with your GP is confidential, and you choose what you bring up. There's no pressure to cover anything you're not ready to.

We will ask you a series of questions that will guide your follow-up with an appointment coordinator.

Time to look after the bloke your family relies on.

Most of what matters at your age is quietly manageable when you stay ahead of it.

And often it's simply peace of mind, which is worth a lot on its own.

Book a Well Man check with a GP who'll take the time, give you a clear picture, and keep it between the two of you. From start to always.
