Must visit if you haven't visited yet.

We both found our visit to the Royal Flying Doctor Service was an inspiring and moving experience. Definitely worth visiting if you are in the Dubbo area. It is extremely well run, the displays are interactive and the ambassadors bring the whole experience alive with their passion, enthusiasm and interesting stories to share. The cafe does lovely food and coffee too. Highly Recommended

What a fabulous place to visit! I learnt a lot about the RFS. Wanted to visit for ages when I heard the place had opened. And finally did in July 2021 definitely recommend! There is a retired aircraft to look at, hands on things to see and watch. All Covid safe. Staff were great too.

I wasn't expecting much from this place but frankly it was worth the time. I was amazed by the work these guys are doing to help people at remote areas and their dedication in explaining their approach and arrangements

It is great facility equipped with high technologies describing the importances and great works of Flying Doctors. At the start of exhibition there are some displays of histories and a large interactive round sensored screen. Inside the main exhibition, there are many big screens for a movie show, a real aeroplane and a pretend plane (which you can take photo and email). There are also some displays of doctor rooms and dentist room. There are many helpful volunteers who very nice and friendly. We recommended to buy the tickets using dubbo experiences to get 20% discounts (bundled with zoo tickets and old gaol).

The staff are so helpful and take visitors for an orientation through the centre before leaving you to explore at leisure. There’s a great mix of personal accounts and information about the service itself. There are lots of interactive exhibits to keep things interesting for kids. It’s worth watching the short movie that periodically plays to hear some real accounts of how the service has helped remote families.

The facility is in great condition, easy to park, well signposted and the staff were very keen to help. The wall mounted displays and billboards were full of information. The highlights were the various interactive displays that presented the technical challenges and often gut-wrenching medical emergencies being dealt with daily by the service. Powerful experience. Highly recommend, as long as you're prepared to read and listen. Smaller kids benefit from a minder leading them through the exhibits.

Every 5 star review was accurate. Don't miss doing the experience when in Dubbo or Darwin where they have opened another centre. It is excellent.

Hi guys, I'm biased as I do work here but big g keeps pestering me.so here is my rating. Great spot to take the kids on school holidays and weekends. Massive insight into what the Royal Flying Doctors Service actually does as it's not just an emergency service provider. Go n check it out and grab a quick feed at the outback cafe to recharge your stomach battery while you are there. Uber friendly staff and some great interactive activities. Super great adventure for some of the antiquities on display as well!

Fabulous stuff. We'd seen the one in Alice Springs and my brother was (years ago!) the Health Inspector at Winton, where this all started. So this was a very satisfying augmentation. This display - centre was very informative and the staff were positive and thoroughly welcoming.
