About Us
Located in the heart of Young, Boorowa street practice was established in 1912 by Dr Guyon Purchas’ grandfather before he took over and was later joined by Dr Peter Hamilton Gibbs. Who was the sole owner from 1992 till he sold it to Dr Asitha Wickramaratne in 2017. Through out the 105 years one thing has remained the same, our quality of service and our compassionate care.
The practice is fully accredited through QPA.
