AFTER launching in March this year, Maryvale General Practice is extending its services with the arrival of new General Practitioner (GP), Dr Mirna Mostokly.

Maryvale General Practice is a bulk billing medical centre located at Maryvale Private Hospital, Morwell.

Dr Mirna is a graduate from Faculty of Medicine in Egypt and has worked for several years as a GP in her home country, then in the Gippsland area when she moved to Australia with her family.

“I am thrilled to introduce myself as the newest member of the team at Maryvale General Practice,” she said.

“I am excited to join this wonderful community as a GP.”

Dr Mirna wishes to provide compassionate, patient-centred care that is tailored to each individuals need.

She enjoys listening to music, cooking, spending time with her family and skipping rope – believing that a healthy lifestyle “encompasses not just physical health but emotional and social well being as well”.

Dr Mirna undertakes all areas of general practice particularly with paediatrics, mental health, geriatric health and dermatology.

As the clinic’s newest female GP, Dr Mirna takes specific interest and care with regards to women’s health for patients seeking treatment and advice.

She also performs contraceptive procedures on site that include Implanon and Mirena (IUD) insertions and removals.

“I look forward to meeting you all and being a part of your healthcare journey,” Dr Mirna said.

“Together, we can work towards your health and wellness goals.”

Maryvale General Practice offers same-day appointment availability with walk-ins welcome at any time the clinic is open.
