Practice for sale formGPs can now refer patients with complex menopause symptoms to South Western Sydney Local Health District’s (SWSLHD) Specialist Menopause Service, offering multidisciplinary care at no cost. The service provides specialist medical, allied health and nursing assessments via telehealth, with face-to-face appointments available if necessary.
To be eligible for referral, patients must meet one or more criteria, including being under 40 years of age, having a genetic risk of breast or gynaecological cancers, being unresponsive to menopause therapies after six weeks of GP follow-up, having a complex medical history such as venous thromboembolism (VTE), ischemic heart disease (IHD), stroke, or a high risk of cancer or fracture, or having health issues which complicate the initiation of menopausal hormone therapy.
For patients who don’t meet referral criteria, GP case conferencing offers a one-off consultation, providing support for complex cases.
GPs can also join MenoECHO, a bi-monthly webinar series where experts discuss patient cases. Participants can engage, ask questions and earn CPD points.
