READ OUR LATEST BLOG

30 years ago, Illawarra Medical Centre started out as a small office style clinic with a handful of staff to become the busy practice, with more than 20 support staff and 15 doctors, that it is today.

There’s been a lot of changes over those years and Dr Alan Leeb recently reflected on those changes in our latest blog.
