Urgent Care at
Cambridge Medical Centre
Cambridge Medical Centre is able to provide limited urgent care services. We encourage you to phone ahead wherever possible so we can assess your need and advise the best course of action.
Patients are also able to access urgent care services at Anglesea Accident & Emergency.
We may also be able to assist casual patients, this will be dependent on our day-by-day capacity.
Urgent Care at Cambridge Medical Centre is for urgent accidents, injuries or acute presentations only. You will be triaged by a Practice Nurse to determine the urgency of your condition.
If your need does not meet our urgent criteria you may be booked an appointment with your GP for another day.
Our Urgent care services have a surcharge of $10 in addition to the standard consult fee.
