NEW DOCTORS COME TO TAILEM BEND

Tailem Bend Medical Centre has secured three new doctors after farewelling doctors Drs Inas and Mohammed earlier in the year.
There are two new doctors commencing practice at the Medical Centre on 1st June 2006. Drs Sanjeev and Divya Sabharwarl have been working in Roxby Downs for the last year, having come from India with their two children.




In the next few months we are also, expecting Dr Kamath Ramakrishna, his wife Namrata and their two children who will be coming direct from India.




Dr Kamath’s commencement date is still to be determined. We will keep the community informed when the information is at hand.
We have attached some information and photos about Dr Kamath and his family to help familiarise you with them.
We hope the community will provide a warm welcome for all our new doctors and provide them with support as they being life in a new town and new country!

The hospital has worked tirelessly in conjunction with the Rural Doctors Workforce and the local Division of General Practice to develop a medical practice model aimed at making it easier for GPs to enter and leave the practice with minimal disruption.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS @ MEDICAL CENTRE NOW
Appointments are now available for Drs Sanjeev and Divya commencing on 1st June 2006. We would like to encourage patients of our practice in the Tailem Bend community and surrounding district to make appointments as required. We understand that this has been a frustrating time for our community while Dr Sara has been managing the practice on her own and many of you have had to seek out alternative medical services. It is most important that we gain community support for our new doctors as trying to recruit GPs into rural areas is extremely difficult. We would hate to see this Medical Practice close due to a lack of support from the community.
We do hope that this information has been helpful to you. As always we are more than happy for you to contact us personally if you feel that it would help.
Dr Sara Fensak Phone: 85723555 and Terry Wilby Phone: 85725800 or Mobile: 0409090316.
