Welcome to Sapphire Coast Medical Practice

Complete family health care in a friendly, efficient, professional and confidential environment.

SCMP has been notified of a planned NBN outage on the morning of Wednesday 12th November 2025. This outage will affect the operability of both our Bega and Tathra Surgeries and no internet or phones will be available during this time. Both sites will therefore be temporarily closed from 9am until 11am. If you experience an emergency during this time please call 000. Phone advice is also available from Health Direct on 1800 022 222. Alternatively, visit the emergency department at South East Regional Hospital, Bega, or call them on (02) 6491 9999. We appreciate your understanding and apologise for any inconvenience!

Sapphire Coast Medical Practice is a traditional Family Medical Practice based in Bega and Tathra on the beautiful South Coast of NSW.

We aim to provide complete family health care in a friendly, efficient, professional and confidential environment, and support our community with a varied demographic of all ages, socioeconomic status and cultures. All Medical, Nursing and Reception Staff and trainees strive to maintain this through their work at all times.

This Practice does not discriminate against or disadvantage patients in any aspect of access, examination or treatment. All staff provide all health care in a non-judgmental way.'

Phone line closures over lunch

Every day from 12 noon to 1:00pm, the phone lines at both our Bega and Tathra Surgeries will be closed to allow our staff to complete necessary administration tasks. If you have an emergency during these times, please ring triple zero. Otherwise, please ring the surgeries back after 1:00pm. We appreciate your understanding while we implement these changes!
