Health Hub Doctors Morayfield’s 200,000 registered patients’ celebration
Location – MORAYFIELD, QUEENSLAND
Today marks a day of Celebration for everyone at Health Hub Doctors Morayfield.
The practice recently surpassed a total of 200,000 registered patients and continues to grow rapidly thanks to the support of the people and community of the region and the fantastic staff that provide the services.
Today the centre hosted a celebration for our team, our patients, and our community to acknowledge this huge milestone with free goodies, decorations and eats in the entrance of the centre.
To have reached the milestone of 200,000+ patients across our region is truly humbling.
The patient-centred care model at the Hub focuses on access to high-quality healthcare and the team are so proud that 200,000 + members of our community choose to have services provided by us.
The COVID-19 pandemic bought with it a whole range of challenges to our team and community and we proudly, and quickly adapted to these for our patients. The development of the COVID-19 vaccination clinic and respiratory clinic has been instrumental in the health and well-being of the local community as well as their ongoing team of GPs and Specialists.
“The team at Health Hub Doctors Morayfield has achieved so much over the past 5 years since opening our doors and it’s so important for us all to take a moment to recognise and celebrate this achievement” Dr Evan Jones said today.
Dr Evan Jones thanked the community for their support and made a commitment that, as we overcome the workforce shortages of doctors and nurses, that the hub will continue to expand the range of services available.

Community Prize – $5,000 prize draw with patients automatically entered when receiving their COVID-19 vaccination at Health Hub Doctors Morayfield.
This week, Health Hub Doctors Morayfield announced the winner of the $5,000 cash prize. The lucky patient was Caboolture local, Chris. Chris received his second booster dose only a few weeks ago and chose to visit the Hub.
Alike to the Hub’s previous cash prize draw, the campaign aimed to increase booster vaccination rates in the Morayfield and Caboolture area. The team at Health Hub Doctors Morayfield wanted to reward those who are up to date with their vaccinations or those who are on their way to help reduce the ongoing impact of COVID-19 in our community.
We would like to congratulate Chris on his winnings and thank him for his dedication to keep up to date with his vaccination status. We asked Chris what he will be doing with his $5,000 and he’s super excited for a holiday and an injection into his savings.
The campaign ran for the 3 months of Winter to help remind our community that vaccination is our best defence whilst giving Health Hub Doctors Morayfield a way to say thanks for your loyalty and for choosing us!
Vaccine Update
As one of the biggest COVID-19 vaccine providers in north Brisbane, Health Hub Doctors Morayfield’s Vaccination Clinic continues to vaccinate the Morayfield and wider community for the foreseeable future.
