Stay Healthy This Winter with a GP Checkup
Why a winter GP checkup matters
As temperatures drop, our bodies face greater challenges – from seasonal infections and worsening chronic conditions to vitamin D deficiency and respiratory illnesses. A GP winter check-up at Terrey Hills Family Surgery is your opportunity to stay ahead of these risks and keep yourself and your family in the best possible health throughout the colder months.
What to Expect
During your winter check-up, your doctor will review your overall health, address any lingering symptoms, and assess your risk for common winter illnesses such as influenza, pneumonia, and bronchitis. We also check in on chronic conditions like asthma, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, which can flare up in cold weather.
Your appointment may include a discussion about whether a flu vaccination or any other immunisations are right for you.
Who Should Book?
A winter check-up is recommended for everyone, but is especially important for:
- Children under 5 and adults aged 65 and over
- Pregnant women
- People with chronic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, or respiratory illness
- Those who have not had a flu vaccination this season
