GMCSC is committed to ensuring the health and safety of all patients and staff. We are here to help and have temporarily changed our service model to better manage your healthcare needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Whether you are worried about symptoms of COVID-19 or any other type of health problem, our GPs are still on hand to answer your questions and provide care.
Our COVIDSafe Plan & Entry Screening:
As part of our COVIDSafe Plan routine screening, questions will be asked when you book or attend an appointment. Pre-entry screening is also being carried out. Please read door signage and follow instructions. You will always be informed of your options when you book or attend an appointment.
We remain open for your health needs but as conditions of entry, all patients and visitors must wear a face mask at all times when you attend our clinic.

COVID-19 Testing:
Click here for a list of COVID-19 assessment and testing centres in Victoria. Our medical centre is unable to offer routine COVID-19 testing due to a limited supply of personal protective equipment (PPE). If you think you have COVID-19 or you have had close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19 first make a Telehealth phone appointment with one of our GPs to find out how you should get tested.
