🍎 Bowel Cancer Awareness Month

Bowel cancer claims the lives of 101 Australians every week (5,276 people a year), but is one of the most treatable types of cancer when detected early.

While the risk of bowel cancer increases significantly with age, the disease doesn't discriminate, affecting people of all ages.

To help patients and families better understand bowel cancer, La Trobe Private Hospital's General and Colorectal Surgeon Dr Vikram Balakrishnan has created a helpful resource titled 'Understanding Bowel Cancer: 7 Questions Answered'. Read it here: https://ow.ly/CKtY50Z4wLb

On ANZAC Day we acknowledge and thank those who have served and continue to serve.

They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old
Age shall not wear them
Nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them
Lest we forget.

We’re thrilled to announce that La Trobe Private Hospital has introduced Urodynamics!

Experienced Urologist, Dr Modher Al-Shawi who has performed Urodynamics at other hospitals, has now completed the first urodynamics procedure at La Trobe Private Hospital after our significant investment in the set-up of this service.

When speaking with Dr Al-Shawi, he said “I’m honoured to have performed La Trobe’s first Urodynamics procedure and look forward to continuing to deliver excellence in urology.”

Ever wondered why your doctor recommends Urodynamic testing? It’s not just a fancy term - it’s a game-changer for anyone experiencing bladder issues. Think of it as a “performance check” for your bladder.

Urodynamics helps pinpoint the cause of symptoms such as:
✅ Urinary incontinence (leakage)
✅ Frequent or urgent urination
✅ Difficulty starting or stopping urination
✅ Incomplete bladder emptying

And importantly, guides the right treatment: medication, therapy, or surgery.

Congrats to the La Trobe team on this exciting milestone and for the care you provide to our Northern suburbs’ community.

Your bladder health matters - don’t ignore the signs! Talk to your healthcare provider about urodynamics today.

🌞 Skin Cancer Action Week: Protect Your Skin, Save Your Life 🌞

Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world, with 2 in 3 Australians being diagnosed during their lifetime. The good news? Skin cancer is preventable, and when detected early, it can often be treated effectively.

As we approach the summer months, it’s important to remember the crucial steps to protect your skin from harmful UV radiation. Follow the Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide guidelines:

✔️ Slip on sun-protective clothing
✔️ Slop on SPF50+ sunscreen
✔️ Slap on a wide-brimmed hat
✔️ Seek shade when possible
✔️ Slide on sunglasses that meet Australian Standards

"Early intervention is key in treating skin cancer effectively. If caught early, many patients benefit from minimally invasive surgeries that can restore both appearance and function. Regular skin checks and sun protection are essential to reducing the risks," says Dr Sian Fairbank, plastic and reconstructive surgeon.

If you spot any changes in your skin, whether it’s a new spot or a change in an existing one, don’t wait. Get it checked!
