Pavilions set for a healthy new year

PAVILIONS Palm Beach is off to a healthy start in 2021 with a new medical practice set to open its doors, joining the centre’s pharmacy, dentist and physiotherapist.

Pavilions Medical Centre and Palm Beach Skin has secured a 275sq m tenancy on an eight-year lease. It will offer regular GP services in addition to medical and surgical cosmetic dermatology from the second quarter.

The Pavilions practice is owned by Dr Magdy Malek and Dr Serge Korol, who also operate medical centres in Hervey Bay and Tweed Heads.

Dr Korol said Pavilions represented a great opportunity to join an established health precinct in a high growth area.

“The whole Pavilions centre has been upgraded, and a new medical hub has been created which we will fit right in to,” he said. “This practice will offer a holistic approach to health, with GPs specialising in a number of areas to provide top level care for all members of the family.

“There’s increasing demand for dermatology services right across the board — from skin cancer excision through to correction of benign growths or lesions that may have a cosmetic impact.

“Palm Beach is one of the fastest-growing areas on the Gold Coast and is in need of an additional practice located with complementary health services.”

Pavilions Palm Beach is owned and managed by Consolidated Properties Group, which this year completed a major redevelopment of the centre, delivering a new Coles and a range of specialty stores.

Consolidated Properties Group national manager for retail Leasing Rob Clifton said the addition of Pavilions Medical Centre and Palm Beach Skin was the “final piece of the puzzle”. “It has always been our intention for Pavilions to be a destination for food, specialty retail and health, and securing a medical centre completes our line up of health care operators,” he said.
