Your GP is an important part of your healthcare team!

At Toowoomba Endocrine & Diabetes, we're here to provide specialist care for endocrine and diabetes conditions. While we're always happy to support you with your specialist treatment, your regular GP continues to play a vital role in your ongoing healthcare.

Your GP can help with:
✅ Repeat prescriptions for medications recommended or prescribed by our specialists.
✅ General medication questions and ongoing management.
✅ Routine health concerns and new medical issues.
✅ Referrals and coordination of your overall healthcare.

Our specialists focus on the diagnosis and management of complex endocrine and diabetes conditions, while your GP is best placed to provide your day-to-day medical care and ensure all aspects of your health are looked after.

Did you know, if you provided consent on your New Patient Form, we upload a copy of each of your specialist letters to My Health Record.

This means that if you ever need a copy of a letter from your appointment, you may be able to access it directly through your My Health Record rather than contacting the clinic.

It’s a convenient way to keep your important health information together and accessible when you need it.

Please note that letters are only uploaded where consent has been provided.

A reminder that Dr Craft is available to support patients with perimenopause and menopause care, whether that’s between appointments with one of our specialists or without needing to see one of our specialists first.

🚗 Diabetes & Your Driver Licence – Are You Due for a Medical Review?

If you live with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, you may be required to have a medical assessment to confirm that you remain medically fit to drive.

For patients who use insulin, regular medical reviews are particularly important, and the frequency of your review will depend on your licence conditions, the type of licence you hold and your individual medical circumstances.

If you are due for a Driver Licence Medical with one of our specialists, please remember that we need up-to-date information available at the time of your appointment.

Before your appointment, you may be asked to arrange:

• Recent pathology results
• A current optometry/eye report
• A podiatry assessment or report, where required
• Any other relevant investigations or reports requested by your specialist

Having these completed before your appointment allows your specialist to properly assess your diabetes, any diabetes-related complications and your fitness to drive, and may help avoid delays in completing your medical paperwork.

🚘 Please don’t leave your Driver Licence Medical until the last minute. If your medical certificate or licence review is approaching, contact our reception team early so we can advise you what will be required before your appointment.

Your individual requirements can vary, so please check the review date and conditions associated with your Queensland driver licence.
