Our Practice
Our History
Founded in 1989 as a solo practice, we were originally known as Hastings Street Medical Centre due to our location on the popular tourist strip. The practice quickly expanded and, as more doctors came on board, we outgrew our location. In July 2008 we relocated to bigger, purpose built premises at Noosa Fair Shopping Centre at Noosa Junction. Our name was changed to reflect this new location.
We now have 6 doctors and endeavour to provide a friendly and caring approach to your individual medical needs. We also believe prevention of illness to be of utmost importance and approach consultations with this in mind.
Our Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide the highest standard of patient care whilst incorporating a holistic approach toward diagnosis and management of illness. We are committed to promoting health, wellbeing and disease prevention to all patients. We do not discriminate in the provision of excellent care and aim to treat all patients with dignity and respect.
