Walgett Aboriginal Medical Service (WAMS) is a non-profit organisation which relies on public support from individuals, community groups, corporations, trusts and foundations as well as government funding to continue to improve the health and well-being of their clients and the community.

In 1986, WAMS opened their doors to the Walgett community. The Board of Directors moved a resolution to treat all people, and that has been the case since. Currently, 40% of their clients are non-Aboriginal.
