Getting to our clinic from Surry Hills

One bus from Crown Street, no change to make, setting down 130 metres from our door. Or about twenty two minutes on foot.

Walking from Surry Hills

About 1.63 kilometres and roughly twenty two minutes from Crown Street at the Foveaux Street end, or 1.37 kilometres and about eighteen from the Albion Street end.

The route runs Hannam Street, South Dowling Street and Napier Street, then Oxford Street for the last 550 metres.

Undulating rather than flat, with a gentle rise over the last third.

Driving from Surry Hills

About 1.9 kilometres. Crown Street north, left onto Albion Street, then Flinders Street, then South Dowling Street north, then right onto Oxford Street for the last 870 metres.

South Dowling Street and Oxford Street both slow in the morning peak.

The bus is our first suggestion from this end, because it lands you closer than you will park.

Catching the 352 from Surry Hills

  • The 352 is the one route of ours that comes down Crown Street. Board anywhere between Cleveland Street and Campbell Street, and get off at Oxford Street opposite Paddington Town Hall, 130 metres from our door. No change to make.
  • Buses come less often here than on the Oxford Street corridor, because it is one route rather than three. Check the app before you leave.
  • The light rail does not help, despite the name. The stop called Surry Hills on Devonshire Street runs to Central one way, and to Moore Park, Randwick and Kingsford the other. Neither comes near us. Take the 352.

Questions from patients travelling in from Surry Hills

Which Crown Street stop do I board the 352 at?

Crown Street before Foveaux Street, opposite Rainford Street, opposite Crown Street Public School, at Campbell Street or at Miles Street. Cleveland Street at Crown Street works too. From the Foveaux Street stop it is eight stops to us.

Is the Surry Hills light rail stop any use for getting to you?

No, and it is worth saying plainly because the name suggests otherwise. The Surry Hills stop on Devonshire Street runs to Central one way, and out towards Moore Park, Randwick and Kingsford the other. Neither direction brings you to Oxford Street. Take the 352 from Crown Street.

Can I walk to you from Surry Hills, and is it flat?

You can, and it is not flat. It is about twenty two minutes from the Foveaux Street end and eighteen from Albion Street, along Hannam Street, South Dowling Street and Napier Street before it joins Oxford Street. It undulates most of the way, then rises gently over the last third.

Where do I catch the bus back to Surry Hills afterwards?

From Paddington Town Hall on Oxford Street, about 76 metres from our door. Get off at Shannon Reserve or at Crown Street at Albion Street. The Crown Street stops are not paired across the road, so the stop you get off at going home is not the one you boarded at.

Do you see patients from Surry Hills and Redfern?

We do, and you do not have to live nearby to become a patient. Most of the people who travel to us from this direction come from Surry Hills, Darlinghurst, Redfern, Moore Park and Waterloo. If you are further out and unsure whether the trip suits you, call reception and ask.

Most of our doctors are accepting new patients.
