My Menopause Clinic
With Dr Ivana Matic-Stancin
Dr Ivana offers comprehensive health reviews and clinical advice and management to all women experiencing menopausal symptoms. Dr Ivana is a member of the Australasian Menopause Society and the British Menopause Society.
Types of Menopause Clinic appointments that are available:
One-on-one CLINICAL appointments
This is a Menopause health GP appointment in a face-to-face setting. The initial appointment is 60 minutes and includes a comprehensive review of symptoms and overall health, a lifestyle assessment, and management planning. Follow-up appointments are 30 or 60 minutes long. Meno Clinic is a private clinic.
Meno Clinic appointments are fully tailored to your situation and needs. During the appointment, we discuss which management approach suits you, taking into account your preferences, concerns, and health status.
Depending on their health needs, some women will need referrals to other specialised health services, such as a gynaecologist, endocrinologist, cardiologist, psychologist, counsellor, health coach, nutritionist, and exercise physiologist.
MASTERING Menopause group program
Dr Ivana is running a 6-session group program, Mastering Menopause, which is based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for managing hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, and insomnia in peri/menopausal women. This program is an evidence-based, NICE guideline-endorsed nonpharmacological approach for managing perimenopausal symptoms.
The program is built on the lifestyle reviews and changes every woman needs while transitioning through this normal life stage. It is suitable for perimenopausal and menopausal women regardless of whether they are on HRT or not.
The program is delivered in three formats:
The small-group (5-10 people), mini-group (2-3 women), and one-on-one formats.
The small-group sessions are held on Thursday evenings at the Maxwell Medical Group clinic and last 90 minutes, from 6 pm to 7.30 pm, a few times per year.
Dr Ivana hosts an information night a few weeks before the program starts.
The more intimate two- or three-woman mini-group version and one-woman program are available throughout the year on flexible days and hours.
For more details, call the clinic or email Dr Ivana at info@doctorivana.com.au
The online version of the program is currently in development and will be available in the future.
Please note that groups are small, and spots are limited. We will prioritise patients of Maxwell Medical Group, but all women are welcome to enrol in the program.
Dr Ivana is looking forward to meeting you soon!
