About the practice
A medical home in Manunda.
Cairns West Medical Centre is locally owned and run. It has served the Cairns district for over 20 years, and now works from a new, purpose-built building on Anderson Street.
Who we are
Cairns West Medical Centre provides the rooms, nurses and reception staff that let general practitioners and allied health professionals look after their patients well. The doctors who practise here are independent, and the practice supports them so you get the care you need.
Doctors, nurses, a psychologist and the administration team work together, and are always looking for better ways to meet their patients’ needs.
Hinchinbrook Health Care is our sister clinic in Ingham.
The building is about five minutes from the centre of Cairns and the hospital, and easy to reach by public transport or car. Inside, it’s white render and warm timber, with big windows and bright blue waiting-room chairs.
