Accepted payments options include cash, EFTPOS, Visa or MasterCard. Unfortunately, we do not accept American Express. Accounts are required to be paid at the time of consultation. Please ensure your bank details are registered with Medicare to allow a prompt refund of your rebate.
Results:
Patients are responsible for booking a follow-up appointment after having any testing done. In the case where your doctor requires to see you following a test, one of our nurses or receptionists will call and advise you to make a follow-up appointment within the time frame that has been specified by the doctor. RESULTS WILL NOT BE PROVIDED OVER THE PHONE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

A message can be left with reception to be passed onto your doctor during surgery hours. Any urgent phone calls will be triaged by the Practice Nurse on duty.
