Canning Medical Centre

Your Medical Home in the Centre of Fremantle, providing general practice care to the local community.

HISTORY

Established in the 1920s by Dr Basil Hallion in North Fremantle, Canning Medical Centre has been providing trusted healthcare services in the area for around 90 years. The practice was later passed on to Dr Max Canning in the 1950s, who was instrumental in building the current medical centre on High Street. Assisted by a team of fellow doctors, Dr Canning continued to work in Canning Medical Centre until his death in 1995. His commitment to both the individual patient and the community as a whole lives on through the present-day medical team, which provides the same high-quality healthcare. OUR ETHOS

Canning Medical Centre is committed to providing comprehensive continuing general practice care to all individuals and families in the local community. We greatly value our patients, and as such, all consultations and medical records are kept strictly confidential.

At Canning Medical Centre, we believe that a simple question can make a profound difference. This R U OK? Day, we encourage you to pause, check in, and truly listen.

Asking "Are you OK?" is more than a formality, it's an invitation to meaningful conversation. Research shows that people who are regularly asked if they're okay report higher levels of well-being. In fact, 9 in 10 Australians feel supported and cared for when someone checks in on them.

Our team is here to listen, support, and guide you. Whether you're facing challenges with sleep, mental health, or simply navigating life's ups and downs, we're ready to help.

Get Involved:
- Start a Conversation: Reach out to a friend, family member, or colleague.
- Be Present: Listen without judgment.
- Seek Support: If you're unsure how to help, our team is here for you.

Remember, it's not just about asking, it's about being there to hear 💛

June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, a vital time to talk about Australia’s second deadliest cancer.

The good news? Bowel cancer is one of the most treatable cancers when detected early. Yet many people delay testing, often because symptoms are mild, or they feel fine.

At Canning Medical, we’re encouraging all eligible patients to:
✅ Complete your free bowel cancer screening test (ages 50–74)
✅ Book a GP appointment if you have symptoms like blood in your stool, persistent changes in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss or abdominal discomfort
✅ Talk to your doctor if you have a family history of bowel cancer

Bowel cancer doesn’t always show symptoms early. Screening saves lives.

🩺 Need to book a screening or have concerns? Our GPs are here to help.
