‘I’m treading water’: GP to close well-known clinic to avoid financial loss
Dr Clara Tuck Meng Soo broke the news to patients this week that the Canberra clinic would shut its doors

Dr Clara Tuck Meng Soo told patients this week that the Hobart Place General Practice would close as it was “financially unviable” due to the falling value of Medicare rebates, and several doctors retiring or leaving.
