As part of a new village precinct and major shopping centre refurbishment, works have commenced on a new medihub – with a tenant also being announced.

The Noosa Civic Medihub is the first project underway at the Noosa Business Centre since Stockwell’s delivery and opening of Noosa Civic in 2006.

Managing director Mark Stockwell said announcing the new tenant, Sunshine Coast Radiology, and commencing construction on the project was a significant milestone for Stockwell and Noosa.

“We have enjoyed continual support from the local community and enthusiasm from businesses such as Sunshine Coast Radiology to join us, which has given us the confidence to move ahead with our plans,” he said.

Marking the entry off Eenie Creek Road, the medihub will also be home to Icon Cancer Centre, Noosa Civic Family Practice and pathology service providers.

Mr Stockwell said the modern facilities and state-of-the-art providers would ensure greater access and improved health outcomes for the community as a result of the integrated health care environment.

Sunshine Coast Radiology general manager Sharon Hinchley said the practice was thrilled to be part of the Noosa Civic Medihub.

“It’s wonderful to be extending our footprint of diagnostic services, in order to deliver the best health outcomes for people across the entire Sunshine Coast,” she said.

Works have started on the Noosa Civic Medihub.

“Our comprehensive state-of-the-art practice will be our eighth location on the Coast and will include an extensive array of services including digital PET/CT, MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray and ability to perform a range of interventional procedures.”

Mr Stockwell said construction starting marked an important milestone for the company, working together with Noosa Council to deliver on council’s vision to broaden the area’s economic base and provide the community much-needed services.

“We developed Noosa Civic 17 years ago and reacquired the centre and adjoining land in 2019,” he said.

“We completed subdivision works for the Noosa Business Centre late last year and lodged a development application for the Noosa Civic Village mixed-use precinct and existing centre refurbishment in May.

“We are now building a purpose-built medical building which will bring important medical services to the Noosa community, without them having to leave the shire.”

Stockwell Design and Construction, which built the original Noosa Civic retail centre and its business precinct and showrooms, has had extensive experience delivering residential and retail projects. The company is currently building or extending shopping centres in Agnes Water, Bargara and Flagstone.

The Noosa Civic Medihub is set to open in 2024.
