Minor surgery

Many of our doctors perform minor surgical procedures, under local anaesthetic, within in our well-appointed minor procedures and treatment room.

Our patients appreciate the convenience of treatment at a time that suits them, with easy access to our community surgery and a quick return to their home or work.

All procedures are undertaken with hospital-standard attention to equipment, sterilisation practices and protocols.

Your doctor will take great care in explaining the character of your procedure and any follow-on treatment required. After your doctor has explained the procedure, answered all your questions and set out associated out-of-pocket expenses, you will be asked to sign a consent form confirming your agreement to proceed.

Chronic Disease Management

The Clinic 279 aims to assist patients dealing with chronic and lifelong diseases such as diabetes, asthma, arthritis and many other chronic illnesses. Our allied health partners and medical health professionals will work with you to create a health management plan. This plan aims to minimise the effects of the condition on your day-to-day life and potentially prevent more serious episodes or complications of illness.

This may include medication, but also involves direct education for patients and their family or associates. Our Practice Nurses undertake General Practice Management Plans (GPMP), Health Assessments and Cognitive Health Assessments, all of which may uncover important problems and assist in the management of your condition.
