Australia Day 2026 Clinic Closure

Australia Day is a moment to pause. A public breath. A day that invites reflection on where we have come from, who we listen to, and how we care for one another.

Clinic closure

Her Medical will be closed on Saturday January 24 Sunday January 25 and  Monday 26 January 2026 for the Australia Day public holiday.

Our team will return on Tuesday 27 January, refreshed and ready to care for you. If you need to book ahead, manage scripts or organise referrals, we recommend doing so prior to the long weekend.

For urgent medical concerns while we are closed, please contact your nearest urgent care clinic or attend an emergency department.

Australia Day through a women’s lens

Australia Day looks different depending on who you are and the story you carry. For many women, it is a day that sits at the intersection of pride, discomfort, resilience and responsibility.

Women have always carried communities through change. Long before modern systems existed, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women were knowledge holders, healers, midwives and protectors of culture. That strength did not disappear. It adapted. It endured.

Today, women continue to do the quiet heavy lifting. Raising families, building businesses, caring for elders, advocating for health, equality and safety. Often all at once. Australia Day offers a chance to acknowledge that unpaid, unseen work that keeps society stitched together.

At Her Medical, women’s health is not just about appointments and pathology forms. It is about recognising the lived experience of women in Australia. The hormonal load. The mental load. The cultural load. And meeting that with care that is informed, respectful and grounded in evidence.
