All patients can access these after-hours home-visiting medical service if their postcode falls within our coverage area (all of Pascoe Vale and surrounding areas do).

Phone calls are triaged by suitably qualified and experienced staff and relayed to the doctors in the field.
Please let the visiting after-hours doctor know who is your regular Century Health Care doctor, so that a detailed treatment report of each consultation may be forwarded to your regular General Practitioner.
Patients may be provided with valuable self-care management advice prior to the doctor’s actual arrival and are appropriately referred to emergency services if required.
