World-class care for Bendigo

For over 60 years, St John of God Bendigo Hospital has delivered exceptional medical and surgical care to the Loddon Mallee regional community.

With your support in 2024, we aim to raise $2 million to bring the da Vinci Xi surgical robot to Bendigo - and improve the wellbeing and health outcomes of thousands of people.

Surgical robotics are the future for many medical procedures, and it can’t come a moment too soon for patients in our region.

The da Vinci Xi will enhance St John of God Bendigo Hospital’s capabilities, providing unmatched assistance across a range of cancer-related surgeries, and transforming procedural care as we know it.

It will also ensure patients are not burdened with extra travel during what can already be a stressful time.

This is an extraordinary opportunity for the Bendigo community, and every dollar donated will help us innovate to improve our community’s care.

Please donate now and help us change the face of health care in Bendigo - your support will be felt for many years to come.
