SHINE SA continues to monitor developments relating to COVID-19. Our priority is, as always, the health and wellbeing of our staff, clients and community. We will be responding to updated health information in our commitment to this priority.

In response to the evolving situation surrounding COVID-19, SHINE SA have implemented the following measures:

SHINE SA Woodville is temporarily closed until further notice, SHINE SA Hyde Street Practice remains open
This comes in response to staff shortages and allows us to provide the safest possible service. This occurred on Wednesday 25 March 2020.

All initial consultations are now by phone
We encourage those seeking a sexual health appointment to call 8300 5300,
for General Practitioner and specialist appointments call 7099 5320.
Please note that we are prioritising appointments, please call us to discuss further. Most of our consultations are now provided by telehealth where the doctor will phone you for your initial consultation. Some clients will be seen face-to-face.

Walk-In and Wait services are temporarily unavailable
Appointments must be made by phone only.
