The doctors and allied health professionals who consult here work as independent health professionals consulting at our practice. They maintain full professional autonomy in the treatment of their patients, and are individually responsible for determining their lists of services offered, appointment schedules and availabilities and consultation fees, amongst all other issues relevant to the services they provide.
About Quality Health Medical Centre
Quality Health Medical Centre was established over 30 years ago, when it started operating as a solo general practice on the opposite side of John Street, Lidcombe. From an early stage, it quickly developed a reputation for providing high quality and considerate care for the local community in Lidcombe and its surrounding areas.
The last few decades have seen many changes in the way general practice medicine is delivered in Australia, as well as changes in the local Lidcombe community. Quality Health Medical Centre has continued to adapt to different ways to assist in delivering the wider community’s medical needs without compromising our foremost dedication to facilitating the doctors who work here in providing high quality holistic care in a compassionate and patient-centred manner.
Quality Health Medical Centre is fully AGPAL accredited, which means that it has met the rigorous standards for general practices in Australia. Our practice offers a convenient, modern and friendly environment, including a children’s play area, and the doctors and allied health professionals who work here can provide a full range of medical and allied health services to the community. From February 2016, we have also expanded to become affiliated with Dundas Valley Medical Centre in Telopea, which aims to offer the same philosophy and quality of medicine.
