Jandowae is the best of both worlds. A quaint little country town within close proximity to country life in Dalby and Toowoomba and close enough to jump in the car and spend time on the wonderful Sunshine Coast.

Wambo Medical has been an integral part of the Jandowae community for many years however in the past few years, the centre moved into a purpose-built “Queenslander” style medical centre.

The practice is located right in the middle of town and a “stones’ throw” from the local hospital, ambulance and aged care facility.
