Patient walk-in clinics for students, staff & non-staff
We operate walk-in clinics, where all consultations occur in person at all of our facilities. This approach allows us to ensure the highest quality of care, offering you direct, face-to-face interaction with our skilled healthcare professionals. We believe that in-person consultations are vital for accurately addressing your health concerns and providing the personalised care that you deserve.
Whether you need medical attention, a routine check-up, or preventive care, you are welcome to visit any of our health centre facilities during our operating hours. Simply walk in to book an in-person appointment, and our team will be ready to assist you with your healthcare needs.
