“Grove Medical is about changing the way patients experience health care. I was looking for a whole-patient approach to healthcare that makes a difference in how my patients experience healthcare. I want them to feel welcomed from the minute they enter my practice, knowing that they will get the care from the Patient Advocates and will be made comfortable prior to them being seen by me or the nurse, and following the consult, our team of dedicated Cockburn doctors and the care team ensures all their needs have been met.”

Kerrie Sleith
Registered Nurse – She/her
Hello! My name is Kerrie, and I am one of the Registered Nurses at Grove Medical.
Originally hailing from the lush green landscapes of Ireland, I embarked on my journey into healthcare with a passion for helping others. After earning my nursing degree from Trinity College Dublin, I decided to expand my horizons and explore new opportunities. In 2023, I also relocated to the sun-kissed shores of Perth.
With a rich background spanning various hospital environments, I’ve witnessed firsthand the critical role of preventative healthcare in fostering thriving communities. My experiences have fueled a deep-seated passion for preventative healthcare and empowering individuals to take charge of their health journey.

FAQs
1. How do I choose the best GP in Cockburn?
Choosing the best Cockburn GP will depend on your personal needs, including location, clinic hours, and the range of services offered. It’s essential to find a practice that provides a supportive environment, experienced doctors, and positive patient experiences. Additionally, patient testimonials and reviews will offer valuable insights into the quality of care and patient satisfaction. At Grove Medical Cockburn, our doctors bring extensive experience in treating a diverse range of medical conditions, ensuring you receive the best care.
2. How do I book an appointment with a local GP?
To consult a doctor at our Cockburn clinic, you may contact our staff and schedule an appointment. If you or a family member requires language assistance, please notify our reception team ahead of time so we can organise an interpreter for your consultation. Alternatively, you can also reach us at 08 6255 5050.
3. How long is each GP appointment?
GP appointments typically last between 15 and 20 minutes, although the exact duration ultimately depends on your individual needs. At Grove Medical, our Cockburn doctors take the time to listen carefully and provide personalised care, ensuring you never feel rushed during your visit.
3. Can your GP admit you to the hospital?
Yes, your GP can refer you to a specialist or practitioner at a hospital if your condition requires further care. Although GPs don’t directly admit patients to the hospital, they can arrange referrals and discuss the best next steps during your consultation. Additionally, at our clinic, you can request repeat prescriptions online for a small fee, helping you avoid additional appointments for further treatment.
