Your Best Health Insurance is Your GP

From ‘The Colour of Magic’, Terry Pratchett

Risks come at us everyday in our personal and professional lives. We do our best to avoid them but more often we protect ourselves with insurance. We accept that life involves risk. Risk happens!

‘Life is a risky business, no-one gets out alive’

Health concerns all of us to some degree and we try to improve our health or at least to manage it. Some risks are foreseeable but some are not. These drive our uptake of health insurance. Health insurance is therefore a bit of a ‘grudge purchase’ – we don’t really want to buy it but we don’t want to do without it. Is it worth the money we pay for it? Some high profile voices say no. 

Dr Gannon, AMA President

Dr Seidel, RACGP President

Your health is your wealth, as the saying goes, and you build wealth by spending wisely. Your GP can be a great ally in navigating through the health system, a great support for you in times of need, and a great investment in your health. 

Partridge Street General Practice exists to empower you to make your best health decisions. We pride ourselves on great communication and we’re ready to share our professional skills and knowledge with you. 

Better, for you. 

Working with you

You can meet our great team right here.
