• Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Anyone who is in quarantine or self isolation (in accordance with government orders or recommendations) should consider a telephone consultation where appropriate. If a video consultation is preferred, this can be organised. Car park consultations are also available. We want everyone to be able to safely access the care they need.
Current testing criteria are if you:
• have had close contact with a known suspect
• have travelled internationally
• have been a passenger or crew member on a cruise ship
• have travelled interstate
• are a Health Care worker
• or have any cold or flu symptoms no matter how mild
Please ring the Medical Centre if you are unsure (8556 8365)

• Flu vaccines (government-funded) are still available.
• New pneumonia vaccine for people aged 70+
A new vaccine is available (government-funded) for people in this age group to ensure better protection, regardless of whether you have previously had a pneumonia vaccination. Please phone us if you would like more information, or to make an appointment.
• On-going care
We encourage everyone to keep up to date with regular medical checkups - eg bowel-cancer screening, mammograms, blood tests, diabetes management, blood pressure checks, immunisations, etc.
Your health is always our paramount concern. We aim to provide the very best and safe care for you, other members of your family and the community.
