Specialist Consulting Rooms
The Long Road Appeal—Bringing Specialist Care to Colac raised funds for 3 new consulting rooms and a treatment room for visiting Specialists.
Following the official opening in March 2018, a range of visiting Specialists are now using the rooms including a Paediatrician, Urologist, Neurologist and Orthopaedic surgeon. A Skin Clinic has also opened and a visiting Dermatologist is conducting skin cancer checks. It means patients no longer need to travel to Geelong to see a Specialist, saving time and money.
The project was funded by bequests from the Estates of Ian Lindsay Hay and Nita and Frances McLean as well as donations from the community. The project cost was $804,000.
