Clive Bishop Medical Centre
  
Founded in 2014 with a vision to provide face to face medical services for our patients living in the outback when visiting town. From there, we’ve grown into a thriving, fully accredited practice servicing Broken Hill and surrounding areas within the Far West of NSW, along with visitors to the area.
  
Our doors are open Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm with no on call, weekend or Public Holiday work.
  
Our focus is to deliver high quality patient-centered care. We provide a collegial environment with senior support, 3 Practice Nurses and a dedicated admin support team. CBMC is a thriving teaching practice for GP Registrars and Medical Students, and opportunity to become a Supervisor is available.
  
Currently, we are unable to offer nursing home or home visits but may expand these services if practitioners wish to do so.
  
We also focus on Professional Development with quarterly educational days hosting Journal Club, Morbidity and Mortality Meetings and sessions with guest educators all counting towards CPD.
  
Broken Hill

Broken Hill is a place full of heart and proud of its strong mining history set within the vast desert landscape. Hosting a thriving community of artists, Broken Hill possesses a vibrant culture and world-class film credentials. An outback community with a history of courageous and diverse people proud of their origins will welcome you with open arms. The airport is serviced several times a day by Qantas or Rex flights to, and from, Sydney and Adelaide.
