One GP, the full picture

Managing a chronic condition works best when it's coordinated by someone who knows your full health picture. Dr Chegu provides ongoing management for conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions (including high blood pressure and high cholesterol), respiratory conditions (including asthma and COPD), and thyroid disease, as well as other chronic conditions not specifically listed here, and can set up a Chronic Condition Plan to help assist with your wellbeing, along with coordinated input from specialists and allied health professionals where that's helpful.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a referral?

No — you can book directly to set up a Chronic Condition Plan or discuss ongoing care for a chronic condition.

What conditions are covered?

She manages a wide range of chronic conditions, including diabetes, cardiovascular conditions (such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol), respiratory conditions (such as asthma and COPD), thyroid disease, and other ongoing conditions not listed here — alongside your broader women's health care.

What is a Chronic Condition Plan?

A Chronic Condition Plan sets out your health goals and helps assist with your overall wellbeing, and can give you access to Medicare-subsidised allied health visits, such as a dietitian or podiatrist, with coordinated input from specialists and allied health professionals where that's helpful.

How often will I need to come in?

This depends on your condition and how stable it is — she'll recommend a review schedule that's appropriate for you.
