Pia asks GPs at headspace Bondi Junction how they support mental and physical health

Today we’re going to be speaking with Dr. Karen, who is the on-site GP here at Headspace Turramurra Junction. As a GP, what do you do here at Headspace?

I provide free, confidential, youth-friendly medical help. You might come to see me for referrals, advice, or any other medical needs you might have.

What do your consultation sessions look like?

As you can see, this is my room here. You’ll come and see me on your own or with a support person. I’ll start by getting to know you and ask you a little bit about why you’re here. Then, together, we’ll work out a plan so that you leave knowing how best to get your medical needs met.

What are some of the reasons that young people come and see you here at Headspace?

Some of the kinds of things people see me about might be mood issues, feeling low or tired, or anxious or stressed. I can help you with eating issues, body image, chronic illness, or anything else that you might have.
