🎄 Christmas Opening Hours🎄

Please take a moment to check our General Practice opening hours over the Christmas and New Year period, as shown below.

✨ For the unexpected this Christmas ✨
Our Urgent Care Clinic is open every day, including public holidays, from 9am – 8pm. If something can’t wait, we’re here to help.
(Because coughs, cuts, and kids on trampolines don’t take holidays!)

From all of us at Launceston Medical Centre, we wish you and your family a safe, healthy, and happy festive season 💙🎅

While Australia is dominating The Ashes and fans are buzzing about Cummins’ return, this summer’s cricket excitement isn’t just on the big stage - we’ve got our own star in the spotlight!

Dr Glenn Richardson has been selected for the Silver Ashes and World Cup squad next Feb/March, heading off once again to represent Australia at the big tournaments! 🎉🙌

🩺 And no, he’s not retiring (not yet anyway 😉) but he will be off making us proud on the cricketing world stage.

📅 Regular patients: make sure you snag your appointments early before Dr Glenn trades his clinic chair for a comfy pavilion seat! 😄🏏

The construction team don't look overly impressed with Jerome trying to convince them that it's not too late to build a swimming pool....

Just a typical day in the office really🤣🤣🤣

You may have spotted this space if you've been in the new build & have used the glass elevator. Any guesses as to what it will actually be?

Honestly, how lucky is Launceston to have this incredible family of doctors?! Collectively, they’ve provided an amazing contribution to the health of our community, and their impact is just huge. Absolute legends.

And now for the exciting bit… Katherine will be joining James at Launceston Medical Centre in 2026! 🙌🏻

'We're all pretty passionate to help the community.'

Wednesday was International Men’s Day, and what better way to mark the occasion than joining the Clifford Craig Foundations "Let’s Talk Men’s Health" event at The Range, Country Club Tasmania.

Dr Muir Wilson was part of the four–person panel, sharing insights into some of the common health concerns that matter most to male patients.

We know many men aren’t always the best at taking a moment to talk about their health, so events like this are a great way to open the door to these important conversations.

And while we can’t offer a beverage from Du Cane Brewing or a practice swing, it’s always a good time to book an appointment with your regular GP to take a look under the hood!

This week we’ve welcomed three Grade 10 students from Scotch Oakburn College for work experience! 🎓✨

They’ve had the chance to observe a wide range of procedures and presentations (mostly in our treatment rooms), and even got to test out their own suturing skills on our fake-skin kits... steady hands all round! 🧵🩺🙌

It’s been a pleasure having them with us and giving them a glimpse into life as a healthcare professional!

Full steam ahead for the new TerryWhite Chemmart Health Hub fitout, which will see the team move to the ground floor.

The new location is not only closer to the cafe 😉 but provides Wellington Street access and short-term parking for a quick pick up/drop off!

We can't wait to see your new look!

Yesterday our LMC and Urgent Care doctors enjoyed a fantastic session with Katelyn McNab and Kirby Tuckerman, specialised physiotherapists from the LGH Hand Clinic.

It was highly informative, practical, and genuinely fascinating.... hands down one of our best sessions yet! 👋😉

It might have taken 50+ WhatsApp messages to organise a coffee order, but totally worth it. ☕😂

Huge thanks to Katelyn and Kirby for sharing their expertise!

The Federal Government said the LMUCC is "outperforming comparable clinics" around Australia with impressive results.

Urgent care clinics provide in-between emergency and GP care.
