We are a Medicare bulk billing practice

Practice
New patients

New patients welcome.

We are an appointment-based practice, though we do our best to fit people in. A standard consultation runs about 10 minutes. We are currently accepting new patients.

If this is your first visit, please arrive five minutes early so reception has time to set you up properly, or ask about completing your registration online before you come in.

What to bring to your first appointment
  • A current Medicare card, plus any concession, pensioner or DVA card.
  • A list of your current medicines, or simply bring the boxes.
  • Any recent letters, discharge summaries or results from a hospital or specialist — helpful, not essential.
  • Photo ID if you have not been here before.
  • WorkCover patients: please tell your employer and bring their contact details so payment can be arranged.

Health assessments, complex problems, skin checks, minor procedures and wound care all need extra time. Ask reception for a longer appointment when you book.

Ready to book your first visit?Online in about a minute through HotDoc, or ring reception and they will walk you through it.

Fees & billing
Official recognitionA Medicare Bulk Billing Practice

This is the Australian Government’s Bulk Billing Practice Incentive Program mark. It identifies practices that bulk bill, and you will see it on our shopfront and at reception.

What attracts a fee.

Services that Medicare does not cover attract a private fee. Where that applies, reception will tell you the amount before your appointment — you will never be surprised by a bill on the way out.

The kinds of things that usually attract a fee
  • ADHD assessments.
  • Pre-employment, insurance and driver medical assessments.
  • WorkCover and third-party insurance consultations.
  • Medical reports and letters prepared for a third party.
  • Travel vaccines and some consumables, charged at the supplier price we pay.
  • Transfer of records from another practice, where that practice charges for it.
  • Patients without a valid Medicare card.

Not sure whether your appointment is bulk billed? Ring reception on (02) 6530 7404 and ask. They would much rather tell you beforehand.

Still not sure what something costs?Reception will confirm before your appointment. No surprises on the way out.
