Catching the bus from Darlinghurst

  • One bus, no changes. The 333, 352 and 440 all run east along Oxford Street. Board at Taylor Square, Oxford Street, Stand D, and get off at Oxford Street opposite Paddington Town Hall. That is two stops on the 333, which runs limited stops, and four on the 352 or the 440.
  • Coming from the hospital precinct? The 389 runs from the St Vincent's Hospital stop on Burton Street through to Five Ways, Paddington, on Glenmore Road. From there we are about a five minute walk.
  • The 352 and 440 stop more often, including Oxford Street at West Street and Oxford Street at Glenmore Road, so either of those works if one is closer to you.
  • Honestly, a bus trip makes sense! It is the same road, buses are frequent, and you save yourself watching a two hour parking limit.

Accessibility

  • Disabled access is available.
  • Wheelchair accessible entrance
  • Wheelchair accessible waiting area
  • Wheelchair accessible toilet
  • Accessible parking close by
  • If you have specific access needs, call reception on (02) 9072 1660 before you come and they will talk you through the entrance and the parking.

Parking

  • Underwood Street, directly behind the practice, is unmetered with a two hour limit and it is the one most patients use.
  • Oxford Street outside is metered eastbound until 4pm, and unmetered for two hours westbound from 10am.
  • The Gordon Car Park at 2 Newcombe Street is paid undercover parking about five minutes away on foot, open Sunday to Friday and closed on Saturdays, so on a Saturday morning aim for the street.
  • Most surrounding streets are unmetered one to two hour parking.

Questions from patients travelling in from Darlinghurst

How do I get to you from Taylor Square?

Board at Taylor Square, Oxford Street, Stand D, and take the 333, 352 or 440 east. Get off at Oxford Street opposite Paddington Town Hall, about a hundred metres from our door. That is two stops on the 333, which runs limited stops, and four on the 352 or the 440, so watch for the Town Hall rather than counting. It is the same road the whole way.

Is it walkable from Darlinghurst?

Yes, and it is the easiest walk of any of our neighbouring suburbs. About 1.2 kilometres from Taylor Square, roughly sixteen minutes, straight along Oxford Street past Victoria Barracks.

I am coming from the hospital precinct on Burton Street. What is easiest?

The 389 runs from the St Vincent's Hospital stop on Burton Street through to Five Ways, Paddington, on Glenmore Road, and we are about a five minute walk from there. If you would rather stay on Oxford Street, walk up to Taylor Square and take the 333, 352 or 440 east instead.

Can I get to you from Elizabeth Bay or Potts Point?

Yes. Kings Cross Station is a little over a kilometre from us, and the Oxford Street buses run from Taylor Square, which is a short walk from either. A good number of our patients come in from that side.

Do I need to drive from Darlinghurst, or is the bus better?

The bus, for most people. Three routes run the same road, they are frequent, and it saves you watching a two hour parking limit at this end. If you do drive, Underwood Street behind the practice is the one most patients use.

Most of our doctors are accepting new patients.
