About Us

The Schwarz Family Practice was established in 1984 in Dr Schwarz's family home on Macarthur Road. Initially, Dr Schwarz worked both at Campbelltown Hospital and in his own surgery as he built up the practice. In 1992 the property at 37 Hilder Street was purchased and the cottage was suitably refurbished to accommodate the expanding needs of patients and staff. The building has since been extended and now contains 15 consultation rooms, two nurses rooms, a treatment room, consulting rooms for skin cancer checks, three main waiting rooms and multiple support service offices.

The Schwarz Family Practice has sought to support practitioners from a wide variety of discplines, including general practitioners, podiatrists and psychologists. There is also a pharmacy and pathology collection centre on site. 

We are an accredited Practice - what does this mean?

Being accredited means that our general practice is committed to a comprehensive program which involves:

Engaging our whole practice team to review our practices's systems and processes
Opening our practice doors to allow a team of independent surveyors to assess how our practice operates
Assessment of our practice, and achievement of the nationally recognised Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Standards for general practices.
 

As a member of the community you may be surprised to learn that general practice accreditation is a voluntary process - which means not all practices undergo an independent on-site assessment on a regular basis.

Achievement of AGPAL accreditation reassures you that our team are committed to providing support to practitioners so that they can provide high quality health care to their patients in a safe environment.

Next time you visit our practice be sure to look out for the AGPAL Accredited General Practice Symbol (below) or our accreditation certificate.  Our practice team is proud of this achievement and as part of this process we continuously strive to make quality improvements to better everyone's experience.
