The Team
Extending care in the Sutherland Shire
Kingsway Family Practice is an extension of the well-established Oak Rd Family Practice in Kirrawee. It is located at 156 Kingsway Woolooware where Dr Kit Lim practiced for over a decade before he retired in January 2022. Our vision is to design the practice in a way that delivers high quality health care and ensure your visit is as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
The team is made up of renowned Doctors of the Sutherland Shire, along with some newer male and female doctors that bring fresh ideas and a passion for excellence. We are excited to announce that we have a pathology collection room onsite (on weekdays) and have a skin cancer clinic, with highly qualified practitioners.
