Support for our veteran community

We are committed to supporting our veteran patients. Eligible DVA Gold Card holders, and White Card holders with approved conditions affecting weight-bearing joints (such as hips, knees, or ankles), may be eligible for DVA-supported weight management medications.

Dr Walsh-Howe can assess suitability and, where appropriate, assist with prescribing and ongoing management to support improved mobility, reduced joint strain, and better overall quality of life.
