As owner and practice principal of my accredited medical practice (re-certified in 2018, as per latest RACGP 5th Edition Standards, under accreditation body GPA Accreditation Plus/QPA Pty Ltd), I look forward to continue dedicating my time towards delivery of quality care to all of my patients from different backgrounds.
I am very pleased to accept patients of all age groups and any health conditions, from any cultural backgrounds including Aboriginal & Torres Straight Islanders, Refugees, Migrants.
My medical services are complemented by my hardworking team consisting of my two experienced registered nurses (working on different shifts)- one nurse is already trained and certified for cervical screening/Pap smear tests (whilst the other nurse will be certified by 31/7/19); they are both competent in performing routine practice nurse duties such as vaccinations, ear syringing, spirometry/lung function test, INR checks, ECG testing, wound care/dressings, establishment of chronic disease management plans & health assessments.
- The medical practice has undergone significant internal refurbishments in April 2019, especially in regards to the brand new tiled floorings, freshly painted walls and modern furnitures (stylish reception desk, new comfortable & professional beam seatings in the waiting area, and more contemporary doctor's workstation).
Additionally, a 3rd consultation room (newly built) is on the brink of being available, to accommodate allied health staff (podiatrist, physiotherapist and/or exercise physiologist) in the very near future - exact starting date of these services will be officially posted on this website, hopefully by June 2019. My business expansion dream will also include employment of a second GP colleague (female) within the next 12 months. ***
Our Practice information sheets, Privacy policy details, Email policy document and Practice Fees sheet (the latter is for extra services other than bulk-billing) are all displayed & available as hard copies at the front desk.
Home visits are reserved, on compassionate grounds, for palliative patients (known to the practice) who require end-of-life support.
Our two receptionists (each working on different days/shifts) are well-trained, very nice, welcoming, flexible and understanding of patients' needs. The practice has been operating for close to 20 years now, and has been serving the local community very well during this period.
Furthermore, we offer on-site Pathology services (Laverty Lab) during the normal working hours Monday to Saturday. Several radiology centres are present within a 5km radius of the practice.
Visiting audiologist comes in 2 monthly for free screening hearing tests.
Our location provides ample parking for patients: side street parking, front & rear parking, across-the-road shopping centre parking. The surrounding area is booming with new apartments, shopping complexes, schools and many other facilities.
Obviously, one of the biggest southern hemisphere Hospitals (Westmead) is just close by, in case patients need to be sent urgently for more advanced care.
Very experienced specialists, allied health staff and pharmacist in the area, are additional valuable services that my patients are likely to benefit from.
We welcome patient feedback anytime, and accordingly thrive to resolve any practice-related matters ASAP.
