A chronic disease is something that has been present for six monthsor longer. This could be asthma, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, musculoskeletal conditions and nerve disorders, amongst other conditions.

At Medwell, we understand that people suffering from chronic disease often have care needs that are higher than the rest of the population. While we always aim to prevent chronic disease, our doctors are skilled at working with you to reduce the rate of progression or the risk of complications from these conditions.
And with 1 in 2 Australian’s reporting they’re suffering from at least one chronic disease we understand our management is key to supporting our patients to reaching a healthier lifestyle. When applicable, we draw the expertise of a numerous range of Allied Health Practitioners to assist with the management of your
chronic condition. Often, lifestyle has a huge implication on your general health and chronic disease. In many instances, a change in lifestyle can result in stopping the progression, and in some instances, reversal of chronic condition. At Medwell Clinic, we can offer Lifestyle Medicine treatment options to assist you with your chronic disease concerns.
