Medical help with cultural understanding

A new medical practice in Berrinba is not only caring for patients, it’s also making history.

The OceansPlus Medical Centre is providing culturally relevant medical services and support to Pasifika and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) residents in the City of Logan.

It is believed to be the first of its kind in Queensland, and possibly Australia, to be Pasifika owned and serviced.

The clinic’s founder is Dr Kuinileti (Leti) Chang Wai, who has been a GP for more than 20 years. In 2023, she was named Queensland GP of the Year by the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.

Dr Chang Wai says the new clinic will provide accessible, culturally-responsive health care for our diverse communities.

‘It will also bridge cultural and systemic gaps in health care, ensuring that every individual receives care that is both meaningful and effective,’ she says.
Councillor Paul Jackson welcomes the new service as Pasifika residents comprise the largest non-Anglo demographic in Division 5.

‘It is so important for us to have medical care with cultural understanding behind it,’ he says.

Details for the OceansPlus Medical Centre are:
