Omega Mind Clinics is thrilled to announce the opening of the mental health nurse practitioner’s clinic located on level 4 of the same building as our psychiatry clinics and the Omega Wellness Centre, offering accessible and affordable access to patients with mild to moderate mental health concerns.
The nurses clinic caters to the patient population that has more specialised needs than GPs can provide but does not warrant specialist care. The service will also work to fill the gap left by the current significant wait times to access psychiatrists after a GP referral has been completed.
