About Swanson Medical Centre

Swanson Medical Centre was set up in the late 1970’s by the local pharmacist, Margaret Saunders. Dr Mike Jenkin joined the Practice in 1984 and took over as a sole practitioner in 1987. As he became busy with obstetrics he took on an assistant for one session a week, and from there  the Practice expanded to the current 3 doctors. Dr Wiki Gillespie joined Swanson Medical Centre in 2012 and became a partner on 1 April 2013. Dr Helen Johnston joined the Practice in 2014. Dr Tony Moyle joined in June 2017. We hope to be able to accomodate the growing population of Swanson and its surroundings and are looking to extend our hours and services over the next few months.

Our cottage has grown

We have a beautiful new building to provide improved services to our community. We have car parking for 14 cars around the surgery.

We are able to provide low fees

At Swanson Medical Centre, we’re all about making healthcare affordable to our community.  To be able to do this our practice accepts capped fees in exchange for being able to offer lower consultation charges to our patients. We belong to Procare (our Primary Health Organisation) which provides additional funding for certain conditions and means your prescriptions are subsidised at the pharmacy.
