About Captain Stirling Medical Centre

A community practice on Stirling Highway, six kilometres from the city

Our patients span every age group, from newborns to the very elderly. Many have lived in their own homes in the area for fifty years or more, and they are now joined by young families buying and renovating the old homes around us.

The practice sits near the corner of Dalkeith Road, next to a shopping arcade with a supermarket and pharmacy and the Greencross Veterinary Clinic. Parking is in our own car park off Dalkeith Road, with more on the nearby street.
