In early February Federation Clinic also welcomes Dr Jessica Lawford to the team. Having completed her Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery at the University of NSW (largely based out of Albury), and her Diploma of Child Health through the University of Sydney, Jess spent several years working in clinical roles at Orange, Dubbo, Bathurst and Wollongong. Born and raised in regional Victoria, she is excited to be returning to the area and the local community.

TEMPORARY FAREWELL TO DR LACHLAN McKEEMAN

We say a temporary farewell to Dr Lachlan McKeeman who is heading off to complete additional training required to work as a GP obstetrician. Lachie is a highly valued member of the clinical team and we eagerly await his return.

For patients of Dr McKeeman, we have a number of alternate doctors available for consultation during his absence. If you have any questions please ask our reception team.

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

In an emergency please call '000'.

Every effort is made to keep appointments running to time, however, due to the unpredictable nature of our work this is not always possible. Patients are encouraged to contact us prior to an appointment to check that the schedule is running to time.

Please give thought to the amount of time your appointment may require. If there are multiple or complex issues that need discussion, please let reception know when booking your appointment so that sufficient time can be allocated with the doctor.
