About New Farm
New Farm is located 2 kilometres east of the Brisbane CBD on a large bend of the Brisbane River. This thriving suburb is partly surrounded by the Brisbane River, with access through Fortitude Valley and Newstead.
At one end of the main shopping strip, Brunswick St, is the glorious river-side New Farm Park and the Brisbane Powerhouse, a converted power station that is now a premier entertainment venue. At the other end, adjacent to Fortitude Valley, is where we are based.
We are proud that our clinic caters to the New Farm lifestyle - where residents enjoy easy living with food, fun and farmer’s markets right on their doorstep. You can easily see why New Farm is the place for young families to bring up their children in tree-lined streets and unique spaces such as Brisbane Powerhouse and the heart of the suburb, New Farm Park. The park attracts visitors from near and far with its perfect riverside picnic spots, cycling loops and tree house-style adventure playground.
