Conveniently located between Essendon and Moonee Ponds, close to Puckle Street, DFO Essendon and local transport links, our clinic offers accessible, close-to-home healthcare for the local community.

Our experienced medical team provides care across areas such as preventative health, chronic disease management, family medicine, women’s health, men’s health and general medical care. We focus on practical, personalised support that helps you stay well and manage your health with confidence.

We support a diverse range of patients including children, young families, working professionals and older adults with both routine and more complex health needs. Whether you're visiting for a health check, managing an ongoing condition or seeking support for a specific concern, our team is here to help.

To make healthcare more convenient, we offer onsite pathology, a nearby pharmacy and a choice of male and female doctors. Our multilingual team speaks English, Hindi, Urdu, Tamil, Sinhala, Arabic, Spanish, Kannada and Telugu, helping more patients feel comfortable and understood.
