Wodonga is a leader in regional health facilities and has a comprehensive range of services available to the community. There are approximately 140 general practitioners and specialists in the region, with fully qualified professionals working in all fields from obstetrics to oncology and from pediatrics to psychiatry.
Wodonga is also fortunate in having some of the finest sports medicine practitioners, physiotherapists and chiropractors based in the region.
- The Wodonga hospital works closely with its counterpart in Albury in ensuring all regional health service needs are met. In 2009, the two health services are due to merge to make one entity. This will come under the control of the Victorian Government.
- There is also a private hospital and a specialist cancer hospital, as well as a number of day surgeries, in the region.
- For those who are more inclined toward inner health and harmony, there are many professionals in alternative medicines, including herbalists, homeopaths, hypnotherapists and those specialising in massage, meditation, acupuncture or aromatherapy.

With maternal and child health, diagnostic services, family counselling, meals on wheels and home help as just a few of the many other services available, it all means you and your family will certainly be well cared for when you are residents of Wodonga.
