The Darwin Clinic

The Darwin Clinic is a modern, well-designed purpose built clinic, adjoined to Darwin Private Hospital, located in Tiwi. Being part of an acute hospital provides the extra anonymity that some private patients are seeking and also provides access to medical support services if required.

We are the only private Mental Health and Alcohol & Drug Withdrawal Clinic in the Northern Territory and our spacious 18 single rooms with private ensuite bathrooms, lounge area, dining room, TV-room, group rooms and designer furnished outdoor space creates an atmosphere of tranquility and calm.

Our dedicated Accredited Specialists together with our professional team of Nursing Staff, Psychologists, Occupational Therapist, Social Worker and Health Professionals play an important role in providing a varied range of treatment to our clients.

The Darwin Clinic embodies an inclusive service. We are dedicated to providing services that are culturally sensitive and aware and we are understanding of diversity in identity.

Our difference is our level of commitment, empathy and ongoing assistance available to every individual client.
