The practice depended on finding people who share a similar philosophy, who treat themselves and others with respect, who hold all people as equal and deserving of the best care, who strive for self-improvement and nurture this in others.

What is recognised by everyone at Pine Lodge Medical Centre is that its central purpose is the provision of a high-quality primary health service. Patients are encouraged to become members of the team and as such to contribute to setting goals for their health, to participate in formulating management plans to achieve these goals, and to take responsibility for their health as much as possible.

The Pine Lodge Medical Centre team is there to support this process, to educate patients and their families in everything related to their health, to respond to feedback promptly and honestly and to do everything in its power to make a positive difference in the lives of patients who choose to join Pine Lodge Medical Centre.
