Northern Medical Centre

Northern Medical Centre will be taking a well-deserved break this year. We will be closed from December 24th, 2025, and will reopen on January 5th, 2026.

We kindly ask patients to book appointments in advance as the busy holiday season approaches.

Please note that our doctors will still be available via Routine Requests on HotDoc for repeat prescriptions or referrals. However, these services are not covered by Medicare and will be subject to a fee.

You can access this here: https://www.hotdoc.com.au/request/consult/select-service-for-consultation-type?defaults=practice-northern-medical-centre%2Cselect_consultation_type-quick-consult

We wish all our patients a safe and happy holiday season.

At iSight Specialists, they offer bulk billed eye checks for children aged 4 and over – making it easier than ever to keep those little eyes healthy!
