Women's Health Clinic
See a Doctor or Nurse at BMWHRC
The clinic is staffed by female doctors and registered nurses. Currently, our clinic team is taking appointments for Tuesdays & Thursdays. The clinical team is also available during our free Under 25s drop-in Clinic that runs every Thursday between 3:00pm - 5:00pm during the school term.
Please allow for a longer waiting times when seeing a doctor or nurse for the first time. All first appointments are for one hour. Subsequent appointments are half an hour. All clinic appointments are bulk-billed (free under medicare).
Please contact us if you have any queries or would like to book an appointment.
BMWHRC will make efforts to prioritise & accommodate clients from low-income households in accordance with our constitution. Please bring along your Healthcare card if you have one.
This means we see women's health as including physical, emotional, social and cultural health & wellbeing.
Our nurses are qualified and experienced in all these areas and work closely with our doctors.
You will need to see a doctor if you require prescriptions, referrals, diagnosis or further investigation into an issue.

Important update regarding our health service:
Massage services are currently unavailable in the Centre.
We are thrilled to welcome Dr Sam Critchley back to the Centre. Dr Sam Critchley joins Dr Alison Lyon and Dr Miriam Brooks and our Registered Nurse Salicia Davies. Our clinical team is trauma informed and committed to the needs of all women.
BMWHRC health services prioritise ‘health disadvantaged’ women in the Blue Mountains.
This means that if you are on Centrelink benefits or have a Health Care Card we will take extra steps to make services available to you and encourage you to contact us for an appointment and assessment.
This approach to health equity is a priority in the Centre, existing clients who no longer meet a high-need criteria may experience changes to their regular appointment schedule & availability.
