About the Practice
About Knightsbridge Medical Centre
At Knightsbridge Medical Centre, we provide general practice care with a strong focus on prevention, improving quality of life, and supporting your long-term health and wellbeing.
We provide a broad range of general practice services including preventative care, treatment of common diseases, minor surgery, and mental health. The independent contractors take the time to understand your individual needs and work with you to achieve the best possible health outcomes.
We value continuity of care and are proud to support the health and wellbeing of our local community across Castle Hill, Glenhaven, Dural, Galston, Cherrybrook, and Kellyville, caring for patients at every stage of life.
We are a RACGP training practice with GP registrars joining our team throughout the year as part of their training. Our independent doctors also participate in ongoing medical education in RACGP Quality Assurance activities to ensure we continue to provide a high standard of care.
Our Independent Contractors are supported by our experienced practice nurse and friendly reception team, who are here to make your experience with us as comfortable and welcoming as possible.
