YOUR HEALTH MATTERS TO US - Taking care of your health...
The Illawarra Family Medical Centre was founded in 2005 to create an environment that allowed doctors to deliver high-quality medical care in the ethos and style of traditional family general practice, from a modern, well-equipped, and professionally-staffed facility.
IFMC’s unique strategies and professional approach to general family practice were recognised in 2006 when ‘New Business of the Year’ at the Illawarra Business Awards was conferred.
IFMC is independently owned and operated by local Doctors Rene Dostál, Peter Allan, Gary Butler, Ian McCorkindale and Michele McGrath.
