About our service:
The Stawell Medical Centre is an AGPAL accredited and computerised general practice. It has well-equipped consulting rooms and treatment rooms where services such as lesion removal, INRs, ECGs and spirometry and other minor procedures are performed.
Doctors are well supported by a Practice Manager, Practice Nurses and an administrative team. The Centre is proud to be an RACGP accredited teaching practice and continues to contribute to the medical workforce providing supervision and training to medical and clinical staff through formal and informal training opportunities.
