Melbourne Occupational Health Services

Melbourne Occupational Health Services is the amalgamation of Valewood Clinic and North Dandenong Clinic. As leaders in pre-employment medical examination and work-place injury management, the two clinics boast a combined history of over 60 years in occupational medicine. Both clinics are known for their personalized care to both local and multi-national businesses operating in Melbourne and beyond. By joining forces, we aim to improve on our service delivery by providing weekend and after-hours care, flexibility of location, and a greater range of services.
