Corio is Geelong's largest working-class suburb and services about 15,000 patients with a broad range of ages and problems but there is a predominance of young families mostly of lower socio-economic class without private health insurance. The practice has been fully accredited since 2001.With nursing support the practice is open 7 days a week. There are a number of doctors covering these hours with individual doctors working between 1 and 10 sessions per week and 1 in 3 weekends. The practice is fully computerised with all of the clinical records on computer. The Corio Medical Clinic was established in 1994 when the medical service at Corio Community Health Centre was privatised. The clinic is a busy family practice with a large focus of disease prevention and the treatment of chronic disease. It is supported by the Geelong Hospital one of Victoria's biggest and busiest public hospitals which is only 10 minutes away. The clinic has 13 doctors (about 11 full-time equivalent) 3 full-time practice nurses, a diabetic educator and physiotherapist supported by a large team of receptionists and office staff. The doctors and staff come from a wide range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds and work extremely well together in a happy productive working environment. During these times patients are also able to walk in to the clinic with urgent problems. In addition before 8am and after 6pm on weekdays and all day on Saturdays and Sundays the practice operates as a walk-in urgent clinic. The practice provides an after-hours phone service but this is completely covered by the practice principal. There are also two on-site pathology collection centres, audiology services and an integrated diabetes service with visiting podiatrist and dietitian. The practice is a teaching practice for medical students and GP registrars in training.
