Our team is made up of GPs (see details below under General Practitioners) along with 3 Practice Nurses, a Physiotherapist, a Health Improvement Practitioner, a Health Coach and a Social Worker. 

We are also a teaching practice, meaning that from time to time we may have a PGY2 (2nd Yr Doctor), a GP Registrar (training to specialise in General Practice), and/or medical/nursing students based with us. 

We are an AED practice meaning we have an automated external defibrillator with trained staff onsite.
