We’re improving the Waurn Ponds Health and Wellbeing Centre

We’re excited to announce that the Waurn Ponds Health and Wellbeing Centre is getting a facelift! We’ll be installing new carpet, painting the interior and updating the heating and cooling system to make the space more modern and comfortable.

As part of this change, we need to temporarily relocate our service from Level 2, Building JB while works are carried out. From Monday 31 October to Friday 17 February 2023, you can access our services at the following locations. Online or phone appointments will continue to be available. 

Medical services

All Waurn Ponds medical appointments, including course vaccinations, will be held at the Deakin Medical Centre at the Waterfront Campus. Just head to Building D (John Hay Building), directly opposite Student Central (click on the below map to enlarge or view the full Waterfront Campus map):

If you’re at Waurn Ponds and need to travel to Waterfront, you can hop on the intercampus bus, which travels on a loop between the two Geelong campuses every 30 minutes.

Counselling and Safer Community services

On-campus counselling and Safer Community appointments will continue at Waurn Ponds – these will be held at Building IB, Level 3.1 (click on the below map to enlarge or view the full Waurn Ponds Campus map):

Disability services

If you use the Disability Resource Centre or would like to explore what services are available, on‑campus appointments and enquiries are available at Waurn Ponds Student Central (Level 2, Building JB – view the full Waurn Ponds Campus map).

If you have an existing appointment

If you have an existing Waurn Ponds medical or counselling appointment, we’ll contact you to confirm the changed location. You can also call us on 9244 5577. And please remember to wear a face mask to any appointment.

We should be back in our new and improved Building JB home in February 2023.
