Women's Health


​Being a woman herself, Dr Amelia knows the importance of having a health-care team including a GP that is caring, supportive and knowledgeable in the area of Women's Health.

As part of this, Dr Amelia offers a warm and sensitive environment for:

  • Pregnancy health, antenatal care and support
  • Breast lump checks
  • 'Pap smears' (now called Cervical Screening Test)
  • Sexually transmitted infection testing
  • Contraception and fertility counselling
  • Relationship support & counselling​

She is also available to support with presenting at community & education events on Women's Health or other topics.

Contraception
Dr Amelia Stephens aims to support women by first empowering​ them with the understanding of how their body works (physiology), with their periods, cycles and ovulation. She can support you with a range of hormonal and non-hormonal contraceptive methods, including Implanon insertion.

Breast Health
Breast lumps are common and don't always mean a breast cancer diagnosis, but are important to get checked by your doctor.
