Vitamin C Infusions

Support Your Healing, Immunity and Recovery from the Inside Out

When you’re sick, recovering from surgery, or healing a wound, your body’s demand for vitamin C skyrockets. But unlike most animals, humans can’t make their own vitamin C — we rely entirely on food. The problem? Even the freshest fruit can lose much of its vitamin C during storage and transport, right when your body needs it most.

At Walker Street Doctors, we offer GP-led, nurse-delivered vitamin C infusions designed to safely restore optimal levels and help your body heal faster.

Why Vitamin C Matters

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant essential for:

• Collagen production – crucial for wound healing and tissue repair.
• Immune resilience – helps fight infection and inflammation.
• Energy and recovery – supports iron absorption and cellular metabolism.

When your body is under stress from illness, surgery or injury, it uses vitamin C faster than you can replace it through diet alone.

The Evidence: The Westmead Study

A landmark clinical trial at Westmead Hospital’s Wound Clinic found that:

• Half of all patients with chronic wounds were vitamin C deficient, and many had undetectable levels.
• Patients who received vitamin C healed dramatically faster with ulcers shrinking by 100% in the vitamin C group, compared to an increase in ulcer size in the placebo group.
• No patient in the vitamin C group required amputation, while nearly half of those in the control group did not heal.

These results highlight how common and clinically significant vitamin C deficiency is in anyone with wounds, infection, or slow recovery.

How Infusions Help

Intravenous (IV) vitamin C bypasses the gut and delivers high, therapeutic levels directly into your bloodstream. This can:

• Replenish depleted stores quickly
• Reduce fatigue and inflammation
• Support healing after illness, injury or surgery
• Strengthen immune defence and collagen formation

All infusions at Walker Street Doctors are delivered by our experienced nursing team under GP supervision, in a calm, comfortable environment designed for rest and recovery.

What to Expect

Your infusion takes around 30- 40 minutes. You’ll relax in our infusion suite while our nurses monitor you throughout. Most patients leave feeling brighter, calmer, and recharged.
