Dr Ricky Lam is a GP (General Practitioner) based in Eastwood, NSW, looking after everyday health needs for people in the local area. The practice is located at Shop 2, 7 Rutledge Street, Eastwood NSW 2122.
In a typical visit, Dr Lam helps you make sense of what’s going on with your body, whether it’s something new or a health issue that’s been hanging around. General practice is often about the small stuff as well as the bigger concerns, like keeping an eye on how you’re travelling over time.
Services at the clinic include routine check-ups, flu shots, blood pressure monitoring, prescription refills, and basic lab tests. If you need a regular health review, Dr Lam can guide you through what to check and what to do next. At times, people come in just after noticing changes, and other times it’s a planned visit because they want to stay on top of things before problems grow.
Blood pressure monitoring is a big part of staying well, especially for people managing stress, weight changes, or long-term health conditions. If numbers aren’t where they should be, Dr Lam works with you on practical next steps, including follow-up plans and support for lifestyle changes when appropriate.
Flu season can sneak up fast, so getting vaccinated when it’s the right time for you matters. Dr Lam can help you understand what’s needed and make the process simple, from booking to getting your immunisation done.
For prescription refills and ongoing medicines, the focus is on keeping things steady and safe. You can also discuss side effects, how well a plan is working, and what needs checking at the next review.
Dr Lam’s role as a GP also means you don’t have to know all the right words. You can come in with a concern, a list of symptoms, or even just “I’m not sure what’s going on.” From there, the appointment is about listening, checking what needs to be checked, and helping you move forward.
