Golden City Medical is a breath of fresh air in the often impersonal, corporate-like landscape of primary health care. The clinic has been independently-owned and providing personalized care tailored to the unique needs of families since its doors opened in 1993. They are happy to use their more casual, non-organizational structure as an excuse to boost the doctor-patient relationship—a model that is undeniably more successful.
When you go to a more traditional clinic, you are likely to be met by a doctor trained to take a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. But Golden City Medical reassures patients that the treatments they provide are specific to the exact health needs of the individual. In fact, being unlinked to a giant, generic corporation simply makes the whole process more convenient for you! You are likely to have less difficulty with lining up the timing and frequency of your visits, which can then be incorporated into your busy schedule more easily.
What Sets Us Apart: The Benefits of an Independent Doctors Clinic
Why would you choose a non-corporate clinic? At Golden City Medical, we pride ourselves on our:
- Personalized approach to healthcare: In independent clinic settings, our healthcare providers often get more resources and time to understand your needs as our patient. We have the opportunity to make more tailored, appropriate plans for your health. Plus, you may simply feel more comfortable talking to us and asking about what's going on!
- Feeling of community in your healthcare: We often instruct our clinics to participate in local events. Our teams build relationships with our Aussie locals and gain a deeper understanding of local health issues — we want to make your health services as accessible and locally relevant as possible.
Patient-Centric Approach
Golden City Medical is a clinic that places trust at the heart of its relationships with patients. That trust is formed through very human interactions, where the emphasis, like the Golden Rule, is on empathy. Empathy makes the person sitting across from you feel understood. It makes them feel heard. This, in turn, enhances their experience and aids in creating a “safe space” in which they are more inclined to open up and speak freely about the particular complaint that has brought them in.
There are some notable benefits to choosing an independent doctors clinic like Golden City Medical as your family's healthcare provider.
- Personalized Service: In larger, corporate style facilities, the personal touch is, quite often, forgotten. Your independent medical clinic is more concerned with patient relationships, so they take the time to familiarize themselves with your needs, tailoring your care accordingly.
- Trustworthy Advice: Once you develop those patient relationships, it's easier to trust that the advice given to you is honest and true.
- The Continued Provision of More Accurate Medical Advice: Households are likely to maintain a similar range of health conditions. One patient’s health picture will, therefore, likely be related to another family member's. Our doctors and nurses will be better able to treat the individual, the more they know about your related family health issues.
