Turbot Street Medical Centre
Turbot Street Medical Centre was established in July 2013 by Dr Gaurav Singh. With an excellent team of doctors and staff, we continue to grow and are today, a popular practice in the area amongst all age groups.
We are open 365 days a year and pride ourselves in being a teaching practice. In addition to being accredited for first and second-year registrars, we also host clinical placements for medical students from UQ.
