Philosophy
Belair Medical aims to provide personal high quality primary health care to individuals and families in a supportive friendly and aesthetically pleasing environment.
Belair Medical has a holistic approach to medicine, focusing on family care, with patient ages ranging from neonates to the elderly.
Belair Medical believes that Primary Health care is best provided in the local community where patients can either walk or drive a short distance to see a doctor or health professional. Providing quality medical care in the community, helps to keep the population healthy thereby reducing hospital admissions and alleviating some of the ever increasing demands on the hospital system.
