Like the community spirit.. Very ❤
They go the extra mile to look after elderly and people suffering dementia
I arrived to have an xray here as l was not up to driving on further to Sale this week after a doctors visit. I was very pleased to learn that the old Maffra Hospital site was providing the service of xrays again, and, being an "out of towner", very pleasantly surprised. This is a wonderful thing for Maffra to add to the community and l just hope it is used by the townfolk and surrounds or it may close. I wish it known that l am extremely grateful for this service and glad to pass it on to my friends and family to use as well.....thanks Maffra! P.S. my three children were born here also...
