As a health orientated business we are obviously taking the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) situation very seriously. The health and safety of our patients and staff is of upmost importance and we are following Government health recommendations.

Taking into consideration the information and advice from health authorities, along with the fact that much of our work here is done in enclosed spaces and includes close contact, often touch, we have chosen to put certain measures in place to limit the risk of exposure. 

Salmon & Sweet Potato Patties
Egg free & Dairy free

Turn leftover salmon into a superfood patty!

This is a great mid-week meal as there is minimal cooking time required. You can also prep a few extra’s and store them in the freezer for times when you need an instant meal.

Clean up continues . . .

After the demolition of the rear of our Clinic building late last year the builders have been busy with clean up in preparation for the construction phase, which will begin soon.

We’re still open for business - using the front of the Clinic at 339 Heidelberg Rd along with our Exercise + Rehab Centre at 376 Heidelberg Rd.

REMEMBER

During the demolition and construction:

-        there is no access to Alphington Sports Medicine Clinic from the back, Westgarth Street. Please use the Heidelberg Road entrance.
