Who we are

For 40 years WRAD Health has been part of the Warrnambool community. We’re a community health organisation offering free GP, counselling and allied health services and we’re growing. We have deep roots in AOD expertise, but we offer much more and we have ambitious plans to grow our free services for our community.

Warrnambool sits at the end of the famous Great Ocean Road and was recently rated Victoria’s most liveable place. Life here is hard to beat.

• The beach is just 5 minutes away, with whale watching at Logans Beach each winter
• There’s plenty to do after work, with lots of cafes and eateries to choose from
• You’ll find a really friendly and welcoming community

If six-minute medicine isn’t for you, this is the place for you. We’re especially keen to hear from registrars with expertise or a real interest in mental health, women’s health or youth health, the areas our community is asking us to grow.
