Allied Health in Kippax (Holt)

Clinician's hands fitting a blue ankle-foot brace on a patient's lower leg

HealthPlex Kippax is a visiting-practitioner allied health clinic consulting from within Kippax Medical Centre, 41 Hardwick Crescent, Holt. Sessions run at scheduled times through the week rather than daily, which means appointments are limited and worth booking ahead — and for west Belconnen residents it means seeing an allied health practitioner alongside your regular GP visit, without driving to Belconnen town centre or across the lake.

The clinic sits in the Kippax group centre, the retail and services heart of west Belconnen since Kippax Fair opened in 1976 — a centre named, in a very Canberra touch, after the cricketer Alan Kippax. With Woolworths and Aldi anchoring the centre, the Kippax bus interchange at its edge where the Rapid R2 turns around for Belconnen and the City, and the district playing fields across the way, it is where Holt, Higgins, Latham, Macgregor, Charnwood and Dunlop already do their weekly errands. The new Ginninderry suburbs of Strathnairn and Macnamara feed into the same centre by the Strathnairn loop bus, and that growth corridor is exactly why local access to allied health here matters.

Because HealthPlex practitioners consult from an established general practice rather than keeping full-time rooms, your GP, your scripts and your allied health care can all sit within the same building — the trade-off is simply timing, and the online booking page is the quickest way to see when a practitioner is next in Holt.

Injury claims

WorkCover and motor accident (CTP) injury treatment in Kippax

Injured at work or on the road? The Kippax team treats patients under ACT workers compensation and the ACT Motor Accident Injuries (MAI) scheme for road-accident injuries (with NSW schemes for cross-border patients where relevant) — and handles the parts that make claims stressful: treatment approvals, insurer paperwork and progress reporting, and coordination with your employer or case manager on a structured return-to-work plan. The evidence is clear that early, structured treatment shortens claims and gets better outcomes — see what actually drives return to work.

Hurt at work

Physio, psychology and rehab under your ACT workers compensation claim — bring your claim number and insurer details.

Hurt on the road

Employers & insurers

Refer injured workers directly via refer to us — structured early intervention that protects your premium.

Getting here

A clinic inside the Kippax group centre

The clinic is easy to reach however you travel. Drivers will find open-air parking throughout the Kippax group centre off Hardwick Crescent — the same parking used for the supermarkets, so a physio appointment slots neatly into a shopping run. By bus, the Kippax interchange is a short walk away: the Rapid R2 terminates here, linking Holt directly with Belconnen town centre, the City and Barton, and local routes fan out to the surrounding suburbs, including the Strathnairn loop from Ginninderry. If you are coming from Higgins, Latham, Macgregor, Charnwood or Dunlop, you are only a few minutes away by car. When you arrive, check in at the Kippax Medical Centre reception.
