Our practice is a family-orientated practice, and we strive to provide the highest standard of care for all our patients and their families, in a warm and friendly environment.
Our doctors understand the importance in providing comprehensive continuity of care for all their patients and their families.
We have a broad range of allied health professionals that our doctors work with to be able to provide you with the best quality of care possible.
Carlingford Medical Clinic first opened in 1999 and is a family-orientated practice with eight doctors, who work together with our practice nurses. The practice is managed by our Practice Manager, and is supported by our friendly receptionist staff.
We are fully accredited and our doctors are Fellows of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners. We pride ourselves in achieving and maintaining the highest level of patient care.
The clinic is located within the Carlingford Village Shopping Centre, at the corner of Pennant Hills and Marsden Roads. On-site parking is available for our patients.
In addition to general practice, Douglass Hanly Moir also provides an on-site pathology service. Other nearby services include physiotherapy and radiology facilities.
Consultations are normally by appointment, but the first available doctor will see urgent cases.
Longer Consultations: Please let the reception know if you need to book a long appointment, e.g for several problems or a Pap Smear or annual health check.
Home and Nursing Home Visits: Home visits are available for regular patients with our practice with substantial illness or mobility problems, subject to discussion with his/her doctor. Regular patients are those who have had at least 5 visits to the practice, with at least 3 visits being in the last 2 years.
The practice provides bulk billing for patients with a valid Medicare or DVA card, during the week and on weekends.

Doctors in this practice may be contacted by phone during normal surgery hours. If the doctor is with a patient, a message will be taken and your call returned as soon as possible. If your call is urgent, you will always be put straight through to the doctor.

Sometimes the Doctor will order investigations such as blood tests or x-rays. Please check with that Doctor whether they want you to return for an appointment to discuss the results. Lengthy and complicated discussions about results are best done in person during a consultation.
