Medical Centre Bowral
Our doctors have extensive medical experience and the passion to provide you with the best possible care. We understand that thoroughness is essential for the provision of quality health care and we strive to meet that with every interaction.
We offer appointments Monday to Saturday and we keep a number of appointments free for on-the-day emergencies and for patients who need urgent care. Sick children are always a priority and we make sure they are seen promptly.
If your preferred doctor is unavailable on the day, we will do our best to offer you an appointment with one of our other experienced doctors.
We will treat you and your family in the same way we wish to be treated.
We offer a wide range of services from women’s, men’s and children’s health care to immunisations, travel medicine, work cover claims, cardiac testing, mental health assessments and chronic disease management.
Run by our talented female doctors, we offer new and existing patients with confidential, compassionate and comprehensive women’s health check ups. The check-up takes approximately 30 minutes and is tailored to you – breast examinations, cervical screening, other pelvic health issues including bowel and bladder screening, pre and post menopausal health advice, mental health, fatigue and so on. 
Pregnancy and delivery can be a wonderful experience for a woman and her family, but can also be a time of anxiety and uncertainty . Led by Dr Amanda Hipwell, who is a Bowral District Hospital Antenatal Shared Care Provider, you can be rest assured that she will be with you on your pregnancy journey every step of the way – giving you the best and most compassionate care.
As we age, we are naturally prone to more medical conditions and it makes good sense to reduce our risks and to be vigilant for new symptoms. Run by Dr Ono and Dr Jeff Pinkstone, the purpose of this clinic is to identify health risks that may be present and address those risks appropriately.
Raising is a child is an adventure and we are here to help you. Our doctors have a passion for paediatric care and give thorough and gentle care when your loved ones are not feeling well – many of our doctors have undergone further training in this field. 
Dr Ono, who has undertaken specialised training in the assessment and management of skin cancer, will be leading our new skin clinic. We recommend a full skin cancer screening every 12 months for those over the age of 30 and more if you are at higher risk of skin cancers . Our skin cancer screening is thorough and may take between 20-40 minutes depending on your risk factors and skin type. The skin is examined with bright light and then dermoscopy is performed. If need be, we can treat skin cancers and/or abnormal lesions on the spot, either by freezing (cryotherapy), biopsy or surgical excision.
Dr Jeff Pinkstone is a designated Aviation Medical Examiner for CASA. He accepts appointment for all pilots and air traffic controllers. It is necessary for those renewing their medical certificates to complete the Medical Records Online at the CASA website before attending their appointment.
