Architect's designs have been released for Noosa's new medical centre, touted to be an "epicentre for healthy living" in Noosa.

Documents lodged with Noosa Council showed the three-storey development would cater for general practitioners, specialists, nurses, and allied health professionals to be supported by on-site pharmacy, radiology and pathology services.

Council spokesman Nathan Evans confirmed the council approved the medical centre application back in October last year.

Council also last month approved a change to allow the applicant to extend the basement to include a medical linear accelerator bunker to facilitate cancer treatment.

Some other minor changes were also approved.
