Welcome to Clifton Hill Medical Group
CHMG has a long history. It was established in 1901, and is still located in the same building. Many things have changed in medicine and society since then, but it still plays an important part in the community. The independent doctors who practice here are dedicated to providing high quality, comprehensive and ethical medical service compassionately to a diverse range of patients. They care for people of all races, beliefs, genders, abilities and circumstances throughout all stages of life.
New patients are welcome.

News
Dr Michelle Lee
Sadly for us, after several years at CHMG Michelle has made the decision to move to a clinic closer to her home, to better manage the work/life balance of a young family. We wish Michelle and her family all the best. Patients are welcome to see any of the other doctors in the practice to continue their care at CHMG.
Flu vaccine clinics
We are offering vaccination through dedicated vaccination clinics over the next few weeks. These are brief appointments – for vaccination only – and can be booked online or through reception. The vaccine is free for eligible patients, and costs $25 for those not eligible.
Other government funded vaccines, such as covid or shingles, may also be given at the same time if there is stock available.
Vaccination can also be given during your booked doctors visit, or by the nurses, depending on available appointments.
Fee changes from January 1 2025
A small increase in fees has been required to manage increased business costs. Please see the new general fee guide here.
Doctor Update
We welcome Dr Shradha Nikatil who will be consulting on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
All the best to Dr Miriam Yassa who is taking maternity leave!

Masks
Wearing masks in the clinic is now voluntary. However, to protect our staff and patients we request that anyone with COUGH, COLD OR FLU SYMPTOMS please let reception know, and we request you wear a mask in the building. Please bring your own mask. Patients with respiratory symptoms may be asked to wait in the covered porch area if possible.
COVID-19
Masks are still required for patients who are suffering any cough, fever or cold symptoms. Please bring a mask with you, and let reception know as soon as you arrive.
Patients who have tested positive to covid can be initially assessed by a TELEPHONE CONSULTATION. Antiviral medication may be appropriate and can be discussed with your doctor if you meet the clinical criteria.
