Our history
2011
The Institute for Urban Indigenous Health (IUIH) secured funding from Queensland Health to establish a clinic in partnership with a private GP clinic located behind the Morayfield Shopping Centre.
The demand for services was so significant that the clinic was relocated to a shared premises in North Lakes with the Closing the Gap team.

Moreton ATSICHS’ first standalone clinic opened at 10 Walkers Street, Morayfield in December.
