Apart from…read morebeing loaded up with Diaz and Campral on detox - no safety plan was implemented, no current/past medications were reviewed, no strategies to curb cravings or de-escalation techniques implemented. Staff say to approach them if in mental crisis - but upon being honest - I was told your MH is not our priority and discharge is likely if you can't regulate yourself. Detox is a period in which emotions are heightened - yet no helping hand was there when I needed it most. Disappointed and fragile. Had to call lifeline despite being in a care facility with access to psychiatrist, psychologist and few mental health trained nurses. Damascus you have failed me - I hope to see this service provide more support in the future.

Disgusting food even for a hospital, as a type one diabetic who needs to top up on blood sugar I…read morefound it disappointing that they don't provide any sweet biscuits or the like, I can't eat much of the hospital food as it is so bad with very little of it. The detox treatment costs over 16,000 dollars so I would expect a bit better.

My doctor here is Dr Ken Koh and he's been amazing. Cannot tell you how many doctors I went to…read morebefore I found one that I felt confident in and felt reliable in seeing about health issues or prescription refills. I once went to a doctor that prescribed me anti-histamines when I had pneumonia. As a result I got asthma, and I've been very cautious about choosing a cheap, bulk-billed doctor. Central Brunswick Centre is not bulk-billed, but it is rebated by Medicare, so your average cost for a consultation is about $30. The staff are super friendly and you don't have to wait too long when you book an appointment. When it comes to your health you can never be too careful but I wouldn't trust anywhere else.

Central Brunswick Medical Centre is gay friendly, and the majority of doctors are gay themselves. So a lot of the LGBT community are patients here and can get sexual advice and check ups in a comfortable environment. I'm straight but I come here because the doctors, receptionists and facilities are amazing. I've been to a few doctors here. Ken Koh is very helpful, and when I left the appointment he even called me on his private office line to double check whether or not I'd had certain vaccines. Fiona Bishop is fantastic, and is always on high demand. When I first wanted to come to this clinic she wasn't taking on any new patients, but six months later I somehow managed to weasel my way onto her regular patient's list. She's compassionate, but firm, and made me piss myself when I walked in with a nasty virus and she spent our entire consultation with a face mask on. (I was very contagious.) James Kennedy is a sweetheart and has a lovely Irish accent that will make you forget all of your ails. The nurse is also incredibly kind and considerate. My ears get blocked often so I come here to get them flushed out. Having water flushed into your middle ear isn't exactly pleasant and can leave you feeling nauseous, so the nurse sat and chatted with me while the room stopped spinning. Some important things to note: - You're able to claim most of the bill back through medicare, and the ladies at reception can help you set things up so those returns are paid directly to your account. - There's a pathology clinic down the hall so you can get your tests done in one hit. - If you're catching public transport, this place can be a bit difficult to find. Walk past Grill'd, then past Video Ezy, walk up two flights of stairs and it's straight ahead on your left.
