Deakin Private Hospital is a modern, purpose-built mental health facility delivering high-quality, patient-centred care to the Canberra community and surrounds. With strong and growing demand for specialist psychiatric services across the ACT, we are expanding our team and investing in the programs and infrastructure to support it — including access to innovative treatments such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and novel therapies for treatment-resistant depression.
