About WiSE Medical?
WiSE Medical is a walk-in specialist emergency clinic based in Macquarie Park and Robina, Gold Coast.
It was founded by a group of emergency specialists, who are passionate about creating an workplace of quality emergency care, without the crowds and wait times associated with emergency departments.
Our aim is to provide a better environment for both patients and health care workers to receive and provide Specialist care when they need it most, in a happy and collaborative environment.
WiSE Pathology and WiSE Plus are also part of the WiSE Medical family.
Our newest venture is the opening of WiSE Sutherland Shire in Caringbah – our third state-of-the-art specialist emergency clinic.
Opened in early September, the clinic will provide walk-in specialist emergency care to the South Sydney community from 10:00am to 10:00pm, seven days a week.
The new location will offer the same high-quality walk-in specialist services available at our Macquarie Park and Gold Coast clinics, including care from FACEM doctors and experienced nurses, onsite diagnostic radiology services, an allied health specialist hub, , and, of course, our dedicated medical reception and scribe team to support patients throughout their WiSE journey.

Give: Giving is at the core of our organisation.
