EXTERNAL
SUPPORT
|
-
WE are centrally
located for a number of health support agencies and most are easily accessible
by local transport routes.
-
EACH resident is
encouraged to maintain contact with their general practitioner if they
are within travelling distance but if this is not practical, we have 3
general practitioners who visit weekly and are on 24hr call.

BELMONT XRAY AND
SPECIALIST CENTRE are only a few bus stops away, opposite Carindale shopping
centre where Medibank have an office.
-
PATHOLOGY services,
if only of a minor nature are done in our surgery, but special tests
are arranged at their offices in Carindale shopping centre

AUSTRAL HEARING SERVICES
are located in the NEXUS center Mt Gravatt along with the CENTRELINK offices
again a few bus stops on a direct route.

P.A. HOSPITAL is
reached by one bus change at Carindale, as is the MATER hospital. Q.E.2.
hospital is on a direct bus route as is PRINCE CHARLES hospital. ROYAL
BRISBANE hospital is by bus direct to Murarrie station, then train to Bowen
Hills. WE TRY to coordinate hospital appointments so our residents
can travel together and often find it is less costly if they share a taxi
and make it a “day out”.
