Wakefield Gardens Surgery

Primary care for more than 50 years.

Wakefield Gardens Surgery had its beginnings in the 1960s in a small house in Ainslie, and moved to its present location at 99 Wakefield Gardens, Ainslie, in 1990. Over decades of care Wakefield Gardens Surgery has fostered a reputation for providing quality, comprehensive medical services within a friendly, caring environment. Our location at Wakefield Gardens makes us easily accessible to residents of Ainslie and surrounding suburbs, including Dickson, Braddon, Watson, Lyneham, O'Connor, Campbell, and Canberra CBD. There is parking available onsite for those wishing to drive to our practice, while for those who prefer to travel by public transport, there is a bus stop at the Ainslie shops. Our caring doctors are well experienced in all matters of general practice and offer a range of high quality health services, including:

Family medicine

Mental health care

Chronic disease management

Preventative health care

Insurance and driver’s medical assessments

Workplace injury management

Minor surgical procedures
