In May 2006 we welcomed Dr Gillian Ambrose.  Dr Cicily Nesbit (former Registrar) returned to consult in August 2007.  

This is an accredited training Practice and fully qualified GP Registrars rotate through the Practice every six months under the supervision and guidance of Dr Smith and Dr Ambrose.

Dr Smith also holds a Visiting Medical Staff position at the Angliss Hospital and in this capacity can admit and care for patients requiring in-hospital treatment.

Services provided 

This practice provides comprehensive primary medical care for patients of all ages. From immunisation or the management of acute paediatric illness to the care of the aged and their sometimes, complex conditions, we aspire to provide quality, up to the minute, evidence based medical care. The practice aims to care for “the whole person” and we trust that the service provided clearly reflects that. Some doctors have particular interests and fields of expertise and our GP registrars also bring new perspectives to the problems which present.

The Practice has a well-equipped treatment room with facilities for minor emergencies and injuries, plastering and removal of skin lesions. Our facilities also cater to patient privacy during waiting time should the need arise. We have a wheelchair on site.

Our practice is committed to preventative care. We may issue you with a reminder letter from to time to time offering you preventative health services appropriate to your care. If you do not wish to be part of this system please let us know.
