Our Services
Accidents and emergency
If you have an emergency and require immediate care, you do not need to make an appointment. A triage nurse will assess you on arrival for treatment.
Full family medical care
Family medical care consists of primary illness prevention and general healthcare. Always see your doctor if you or a family member are feeling unwell.
Infant checks and immunisations
We’ll take care of the good health and well-being of your infant with the required immunisations and checkups through the early stages of their life.
Contraception and sexual health care
Sexual health can be a challenging subject for some people. When you see us, we’ll treat you with total respect and discretion. We also supply Mirena IUDs.
Minor surgery
Your doctor can take care of a range of minor surgical procedures. Book an appointment if you have a suspect mole or lesion, ingrown toenails or other concerns.
Health education and care
General checkups are as important as any other form of maintenance. They promote better health and well-being, even if you are feeling well.
