complete your Menopause symptom score before your appointment with dr grant to track your progress
Tips for your Initial Consultation with Dr Jemima
Please complete your intake form. Yes, I know it is long. But your health is important, and the more I know, the better I can serve you.
Please bring a list of any medications you are on, as well as any recent blood work or imaging.
Please come 10 minutes early to ensure you have filled in all the forms. If you are also having a consultation for skin advice, please come makeup-free if possible — we take clinical imaging photos prior to any procedural work.
If you have hormonal concerns, it's a great idea to complete a symptoms checklist to bring with you, and to track your hormone symptoms over a few cycles so we can see any patterns and assess how things improve with treatment. There are lots of apps for this, e.g. Balance Menopause (free) — you can print your results, screenshot, or send as a PDF the day before your appointment (send to info@thriveskinclinic.com.au or SMS a screenshot to 0404 123 781).
If you are coming to review your hormones, especially for a remote or telehealth consultation, please complete this Symptom Score. Email the result to info@thriveskinclinic.com.au or SMS it to 0404 123 781 when you book, or the night before your appointment. It is not a test and no one can fail — it's just an assessment over time.
You may also want to bring a 3-day food diary (e.g. using My Fitness Pal or Parrotpal) and a review of your exercise, sleep, and heart rate variability trends from your wearable (Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura Ring, etc).
For the time you are seeing our clinic, I am your doctor and my team cares about you. Please contact the team (not me personally!) if you have any significant issues or problems with your treatment, and the reception team will arrange for me to call or see you within the week. If it's urgent, call our after-hours line on 1300 814 754, then go to urgent care or your local Emergency Department. Our staff can be reached on info@thriveskinclinic.com.au or by call/SMS on 0404 123 781 or 02 4272 5070.
Please consider booking your next appointment as you leave. Many of my long-term patients book the whole year in advance — I can't just "fit you in." Our talented nurse Jac has more clinical time than I do, and she'll be doing most of my ongoing injectable treatments due to my clinical and director role, and my ongoing work in Urgent Care. She does my treatments, and I trust her with my face!
I'll be opening a small Integrated Membership from January 2027, for patients wanting to see me personally for integrated medical and aesthetic care three times a year, alongside a monthly skin treatment with our dermal team. If you'd like to know more, please contact our clinic manager Sandra at sandra@thriveskinclinic.com.au — places will open a few at a time each quarter from January 2027.
