Empowering Women’s Health at Walker Street Doctors

We understand that women’s health needs are often misunderstood. Our all-female team of 12 skilled GPs is dedicated to managing women's health needs, ensuring you don’t have to fragment your care.

Comprehensive Care for Women

We empower women to optimize their health and wellbeing and assist them in navigating the health system. Our doctors are skilled at discussing fertility, contraception, menstruation, puberty, menopause, pregnancy options, STIs, and relationships.

What We Offer

Breast Screening:

  • Early detection of breast cancer is crucial for effective treatment. Screening mammograms are recommended for women aged 50-74 every two years through Breast Screen. Women aged 40-49 can also have mammography, though it’s less effective in this age group. Regular breast self-examination is essential to know what’s normal for you. Check for symptoms like lumps, dimples, discharge, or discoloration, and discuss any changes with us. For more information, visit BreastScreen NSW.

Cervical Screening:

  • The cervical screening test replaced the Pap smear in December 2017. This test checks for Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and occurs every 5 years, starting at age 25. Women will have their last cervical screening test between 70 and 74. HPV vaccination prevents some types of HPV, but cervical screening is still necessary. For more information, visit Cancer Screening.

Implanon Insertion:

  • Implanon is a small, flexible progesterone-containing rod inserted under the skin of the inner upper arm, preventing pregnancy for up to three years. It works by preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus. Our doctors are skilled at inserting and removing Implanon contraceptive implants. A prescription is required before insertion, and a small fee covers the cost of single-use instruments. If you think this contraceptive method is right for you, please make an appointment with one of our doctors to discuss.
