Understanding Your Gynaecological Health and Wellbeing
Visiting a gynaecologist may feel intimidating, but it doesn’t need to – and shouldn’t. At Create Health, we believe that your journey in gynaecological care should be supported with compassion and understanding. Women's health covers a wide range of issues for girls and women of all ages, from menstrual irregularities and pelvic pain to conditions like endometriosis and infertility. With women's health encompassing so many different aspects of our lives, understanding these challenges is the first step toward finding the best possible care.
Whether you’re experiencing abnormal menstrual bleeding, facing infertility, or navigating a high-risk pregnancy, it’s crucial to have a dedicated team that listens to your concerns and provides tailored care. At Create Health, our gynaecologists are committed to empowering you with the knowledge and support you need, ensuring that you never feel alone on your journey.
Extensive Experience in Addressing Gynaecological Conditions
Our gynaecology services are designed to address the unique challenges that women face throughout their lives. We offer advanced treatment options for gynaecological issues, including laparoscopic surgery and comprehensive care for conditions such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), menorrhagia, and pelvic pain. Our specialists, including Dr. Haider Najjar, a pioneer in single-incision laparoscopic surgery, are at the forefront of minimally invasive gynaecology procedures, ensuring you receive the highest quality of care with reduced recovery times.
By providing a holistic approach, we not only treat the symptoms but also help you understand the underlying causes of your concerns. Our collaborative method begins from your first appointment, so if your health journey leads to fertility discussions, you can continue to receive care from the same trusted network of specialists throughout your journey trying to conceive and pregnancy.
Our Collaborative Approach to Your Medical Care
At Create Health, we offer a full suite of gynaecological services. Our specialist training allows us to provide:
- Information and advice on a wide range of gynaecological issues
- Advanced laparoscopic surgery, also known as keyhole surgery, for conditions such as endometriosis and fibroids
- Fertility assessments
- Pregnancy care, including support for high-risk pregnancies
- Guidance for menopause and its symptoms
We discuss your medical history with you to ensure we understand you fully as an individual or a couple, rather than a patient or a number. Our aim is to provide you with knowledge and the most personalised care in Melbourne.

Your Gynaecologist Melbourne Questions Answered
Do I need a referral to see a gynaecologist?
Yes, you will need a referral to see a gynaecologist, whether this is a specialist obstetrician or for general gynaecology. A referral from your GP will allow you to access Medicare benefits and help to streamline your appointment.
What conditions do you address?
We aim to assist patients with gynaecological conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS, abnormal menstrual bleeding, and more. This includes people with complex cases as well as general gynaecology concerns. We also provide assistance with infertility and pregnancy care. Our extensive experience and specialist training means we're able to provide treatment options such as advanced laparoscopic surgery (keyhole surgery), allowing for recovery with minimal discomfort.
How much does it cost to see a gynaecologist?
Every gynaecology practice charges their own fees for consultations and procedures. At Create Health, we are not a bulk billing practice and do require payment at the time of your appointment. For detailed information about our consultation costs, please contact our friendly reception team.
What can I expect during my first appointment?
During your first visit with us, your doctor will talk with you to review your medical history and overall wellbeing, discuss your concerns, and determine and outline the most appropriate treatment options for you. Your following appointments will depend on your goals, such as whether that is to fall pregnant, address painful periods, or something else. In complex cases, such as with a high-risk pregnancy, we may need to see you more frequently to ensure we provide the highest quality care through your pregnancy journey and delivery.
How can I prepare for my appointment?
To ensure your appointment goes smoothly, we recommend you bring any relevant medical documents, such as a list of current medications, to help us provide you with tailored care.
Can a gynaecologist help with contraception options?
Yes, we can. At Create Health we can provide advice on different contraceptive methods, including hormonal options, IUDs, and other methods. Our goal is to help you choose the most appropriate option for your needs based on factors including your health, lifestyle, and family planning goals.
What if I have another concern that's not related to pregnancy, fertility, and contraception?
Even if you're not planning a family now or preparing for one in the future, it's important to have a gynaecologist you can trust with all aspects of women's health. We often provide support, information, and treatment options for concerns such as PCOS, pelvic pain, bowel pain, urinary incontinence, bladder concerns, ovarian cysts, and heavy or painful periods. If you have any concerns about your reproductive health, don't hesitate to book an appointment with us for dedicated care.
Do you perform laparoscopic surgery?
Yes, if necessary we may perform laparoscopic surgery, which is minimally-invasive surgery also known as keyhole surgery. This may be exploratory surgery, in an effort to diagnose conditions such as endometriosis, to manage conditions such as ovarian cysts, or to perform procedures such as a hysterectomy. Our obstetrics and gynaecology team work with patients throughout Melbourne in an effort to achieve a wide range of goals
