25.01.2022 What a Saturday... I’m used to rushing from footy games to a netball game at this time of year... but today it was rushing from Home Visits to Surgery Flu clinic’s - same same but different I guess. Laughs, Tears and some extremely Brave Patients BIG and SMALL makes our Silly Saturday worth it couldn’t of asked for better team work if I tried .

23.01.2022 Thank you for your sacrifice.

23.01.2022 Just a quick message for our patients Dr Hoda Ghiassy is still working at our practice we just ask that you call our surgery to make the appointment on 4991 5550. Dr Ghiassy is consulting via phone on Monday and Wednesday and can be seen for face to face appointments on Tuesday and Thursday. Due to these changes we have had to take Dr Ghiassy off HotDocs online booking for the moment.

22.01.2022 Thank you to everyone for reaching out to us and helping us to find some supplies! We have secured what we need . We are extremely blessed to be a part of such a caring, supportive community. Enjoy your weekend, stay home and use social media and your phone to stay in touch with your loved ones.

20.01.2022 Good Morning - we have had to deactivate our online booking at the moment due to the number of positive cases of covid 19 over the weekend. Unfortunately for our admin staff that means the phones are extra busy. We really do apologise and your patience in this matter is appreciated. A reminder that our surgery has gone back to wearing a mask inside our building. This is to keep you safe, staff safe and our families safe.
