GENERAL PRACTITIONERS

Coolalinga Doctors and Health Centre –
A Medical Centre With Traditional Family GP Values

 

Coolalinga Doctors and Health Centre provide the services of two traditional family GP’s who own the clinic and work at the clinic.  Dr Erik Hauge and Dr Marcellina Martins are General Practitioners who have years of proven local experience; so  their patients receive  the benefits of  seeing the same doctor every time they visit.

If , due to the high turnover of GP’s  in Darwin, you have been visiting different medical centres, then you need to be aware that some of your medical history, which could contain important diagnostic information,  may not be available to the GP you visit.   If you do find you’re seeing different doctors at different medical centres – and you would like to ensure your medical history stays intact – please select here and  find out how you can easily overcome this obstacle…
