About the Chermside Medical Centre

Chermside Medical Centre came under our management in April 1997 following the departure of Medihelp in 1996. Chermside Medical Centre is fully privately owned and managed by Dr Alan Jones (non-corporate).

Since April 2008, Chermside Medical Centre became a part of the brand new Chermside Medical Complex. 2008 was a major year in our development with relocation, re-branding and further growth of the business. We currently have 12 Doctors on board as well as two Registered Nurses and various Allied Health Specialists consulting onsite. Our facilities are very spacious and modern and our patients can also enjoy the convenience of having various medical services located in the same building. These include: pharmacy; pathology; Southern X-Ray Clinics; Day surgery (gastroenterology, urology, dermatology), Physiotherapy, Podiatry, Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, Dietician, Orthopaedic Surgeon, HOCA (cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy).

WE TAKE YOUR HEALTH VERY SERIOUSLY

Our practice is fully AGPAL accredited and all of our Doctors undergo continuous education and training to meet all of their Quality Assurance and Continuing Medical Education requirements in order to maintain their RACGP fellowship. All of our Doctors and Nurses are highly educated and experienced and there is over 150 years of combined clinical experience amongst us. We are working with the University of Queensland and are actively involved in the ongoing training of medical students. If a medical student will have to be present at the consultation with your Doctor your permission will always be sought.
Chermside Medical Centre strongly emphasies the importance of preventive health checks. Routine influenza, pneumococcal and childhood vaccinations are also strongly encouraged. We also recommend:

- annual health asessments for persons aged 75 years and over

- men's health checks at various ages

- skin checks for persons 13 years and over.

We regularly run routine immunisation, diabetes and asthma clinics and our Doctors and Registered Nurses are utilised wherever possible to enhance our patient education on various health conditions and/or risks.

We pride ourselves on working together to provide a service that offers consistency and always meets and where possible exceeds our patients' expectations. One of our major goals is continuous process improvement and this includes: minimising waiting times for our patients and utilising the latest technological and medical advances. We believe this helps us to deliver quality service and to move ahead of our competition.

Your health is our greatest responsibility!
