Mt Barker South Medical Centre is an AGPAL accredited practice that has served the local Mount Barker community for over 30 years. It is a family practice that prides itself on the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based patient care.

In 2019, Mt Barker South Medical Centre was fully renovated to refurbish the existing building. The clinic now offers three large consulting rooms with natural light, a large fully-equipped treatment room, on-site pathology, and ample parking for doctors, staff, and patients. The clinic is 290 metres from Mount Barker District Soldiers Hospital and is within walking distance to a supermarket, bakery, chicken shop, and gym, to name a few.

Mt Barker South Medical Centre is accredited by the RACGP Training Program to assist fully qualified doctors in the completion of their vocational registration. The clinic also supports medical student placement terms from both Flinders University and Adelaide University.
