Victoria is dong very well in regard to Coronavirus, but we still need to be vigilant. Please don’t attend if you have any cold or flu-like symptoms or bring your children if they are unwell. Masks are not required at the practice but feel free to wear one if you feel more comfortable. It is important that symptoms are not ignored. If in any doubt it is better to seek advice than to just sit on symptoms that may be significant. We will still be practising distancing as much as practicable.
Dr Christine Thevathasan is offering appointments in various ways. We offer face-to-face appointments, Telehealth via video with a single link to click and phone appointments. You are free to select which you would prefer. If you are uncertain whether your appointment needs to be face-to-face, we would be happy to advise you based on your referral letter.
There may be times when the office is unattended and we are working from home. In this case, phones may be diverted, or you may need to leave a message. We will endeavour to respond to you as soon as possible.
Please feel free to email as well: reception@raeburnhouse.com.au for appointments and general enquiries: drct@raeburnhouse.com.au for medical information.

What’s the Difference Between an Obstetrician and a Gynaecologist?
An obstetrician cares for women and their babies during their pregnancy and for a short time after the birth. A gynaecologist deals with non-pregnancy related issues of women of all ages, including reproductive care and post-menopausal issues.
Today, almost all gynaecologists are also obstetricians.

Dr Thevathasan practises in most areas of gynaecology with a focus on managing menstrual problems, abnormal pap smears and surgery.
Her attention to the prevention, screening, diagnosis and treatment of gynaecological conditions makes Dr Thevathasan the perfect gynaecologist for any woman.
She also specialises in operative gynaecology, especially regarding the management of vaginal prolapse.
In order to provide patients with comprehensive and coordinated healthcare she works with other gynaecological specialists.
