We are pleased to advise that new fortnightly General Practitioner services will commence at Mingenew Health Centre from Tuesday, 10 February 2026 with Dr Sasha Risinger from Five Gums Family Medical Practice in Dongara.

Community members are encouraged to book appointments by contacting Five Gums Family Medical Practice on (08) 9927 2907. Online bookings via the HotDoc app will become available in the coming weeks, once the service is fully established.

Once your first appointment is confirmed, Five Gums will arrange for your medical records to be transferred from Midwest Aero Medical, so there is nothing further you need to do.
Patients are requested to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to their appointment to allow time to complete new patient registration forms. As this is a new service, we kindly ask for your patience during the initial establishment period, should any minor start up issues arise. We look forward to welcoming Dr Risinger and appreciate your understanding during this time.

🕒 Commencement of GP Services in Mingenew
GP services will commence on Tuesday, 10 February and be held fortnightly on Tuesdays between 9:00am and 5:00pm, with hours subject to adjustments depending on appointment demand.
Residents are encouraged to book online via HotDoc to reduce pressure on Five Gums staff when the option becomes available. However, appointments can be made by calling the clinic on (08) 9927 2907.
