“It appears offenders smashed a front window of the Shuter Street business before an accelerant was used, and it was set alight just after 2am,” a Victoria police spokesperson said.

“The centre has been extensively damaged internally by fire and smoke.”

The Moonee Vale Clinic is a general practice specialising in women’s health, as well as cosmetic and skin cancer treatments.

The clinic is next door to a beauty salon that has been targeted in arson attacks previously.

Police will investigate whether this latest attack is linked to the previous incident.
