General Practice

Hamilton Medical Group has been providing general practice care to the Hamilton and wider Western District community since the 1940s. Our team of experienced General Practitioners provide comprehensive, whole-of-family healthcare, from routine check-ups and preventative health screening to the ongoing management of complex medical conditions.

As a general practice, we see patients of all ages, offering continuity of care, allowing our doctors to build long-term relationships with patients and their families. Over time, our GPs get to know each patient's medical history, lifestyle, and personal circumstances, supporting more informed and coordinated care.

Our GPs are supported by an experienced practice nursing team and work closely with visiting specialists, allied health professionals, and Western District Health Service, helping patients access a broad range of healthcare services in one convenient location. Being located within the grounds of Western District Health Service (Hamilton Base Hospital) also facilitates communication and coordination with hospital services when required.

Consultations cover a broad range of general practice needs, including health assessments, chronic disease management, immunisations, skin checks, women's and men's health, mental health support, and referrals to specialist and allied health services when required. We also offer telehealth consultations for patients who are unable to attend in person, helping to reduce the need for unnecessary travel.

As a teaching practice, Hamilton Medical Group hosts medical students from Flinders University and Deakin University. We also provide training for GP Registrars through RACGP Australian General Practice Training (AGPT) and Fellowship Support Program (FSP), as well as the ACRRM AGPT Program. Through teaching and training, we contribute to the development of the next generation of rural doctors while maintaining high standards of patient care.

Our General Practitioners are committed to providing accessible, high quality, patient centred care to the Hamilton community and surrounding rural areas. To book an appointment or discuss your healthcare needs, please contact our reception team.
