Newer suburbs tend to be full of people who are busy: building a home, raising kids, commuting out and back each day. If that sounds like your household and your body has started to complain, you are in good company. Evolution Medical Care is a healthcare clinic in Penrith offering a wide range of treatments, and we have been seeing patients since 2010.

Travelling from Jordan Springs

Jordan Springs does not have its own train station, so most people drive in to the centre of Penrith.

If you would rather not drive, check the current bus options to Penrith. From Penrith station, the clinic is in the town centre, directly across from the Penrith RSL.

Parking is the easy part. We have a private car park behind the clinic with up to 13 spaces, entered from O’Farrell Lane, and free 1-hour parking on the clinic’s side of Castlereagh Street. For a map and the best entry point, see our directions page.

Everyday strain in a growing area

Lifting, digging, carrying and long commutes all leave their mark. Here are situations that bring people to us, and each is a chance to find out what we can offer:

  • Back pain after weekends of lifting and digging.
  • Sciatica that flares after time in the car.
  • Shoulder pain from carrying children, bags or tools.
  • General muscle tightness after a busy week.

We will tell you honestly whether we think treatment is likely to help you, and how long it may take to find out. Some people are better suited to seeing their GP or another health professional first.

Treatments we offer

We offer a wider range of care than many people expect. After your first assessment, your practitioner will suggest what suits you:

We also treat people through funded care, including Support at Home, the NDIS, workers compensation and CTP claims.

How a visit goes

Your first appointment starts with a conversation about what is happening, how long it has been going on and what you would like to be doing again. The practitioner explains what they think is going on, outlines the options and gets your agreement before treatment starts. Wear something comfortable and bring anything relevant, such as scans or a medication list. Our first appointment page explains in more detail, and the FAQ answers common questions.

Private health funds

All our services are eligible for health fund rebates with most private health funds, and we have a HICAPS terminal so you can claim on the spot. Eligibility depends on your policy, so check your level of cover with your fund before you come.

If you would like to explore how a personalised, science-based approach may support your back and shoulders, we would be glad to help. Book an appointment online or call us on (02) 4709 6727. We look forward to discussing how we can help in your situation.
