Excellence . Empathy . Every Encounter.
Prahran East Medical Centre has been serving the local community for over 40 years and is now fully modernised. We provide expert and holistic General Practice health care with compassion and integrity.
Our doctors are highly qualified and experienced general practitioners, skilled in all aspects of family medicine. We have special expertise in women’s and men’s health, child health, dermatology, mole checks and skin cancer surgery, accident & emergency, antenatal care, travel medicine, internal medicine and minor surgery.
The practice is supported by registered nurses, onsite physiotherapists, psychologists, a podiatrist, pathology collection and a neighbouring pharmacy. We have full accreditation and use the latest computer technology.
Rigorous continuing education through research, education programs, IT and our university collaboration ensures our doctors stay fully abreast of the rapid changes in medical science.
Staff at our Prahran clinic are fluent in Albanian, Greek, Macedonian and Russian. We welcome people from all minority groups, including LGBTQI.
We're also an accredited teaching practice, training the doctors of tomorrow from the University of Melbourne.
The owners and some staff of PEMC are vegan and enthusiastically encourage all our staff and patients to reduce their intake of animal products, to support the health and wellbeing of themselves, our animal friends and our precious planet.
PEMC acknowledges the people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of these lands on which we work and live. We wish to pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging.
At all other times, we are covered by the Australian Locum Medical Service 13 26 60
