Non-attendance – If you do not need an appointment you have booked, we ask that you cancel it as soon as you can by calling us on 9579 2077.  Please give 4 hours notice for a cancellation or a non-attendance fee of $60 may apply.

To avoid forgetting up-coming appointments, we encourage all patients to avail themselves of our text message reminder system by providing us with your consent, and keeping your mobile number up to date.

Transfer of file – $40 is our charge to send your file, via registered post, to another practice or healthcare provider.  On receipt of the signed request, we will send you a message asking you to settle the account so we can get your information to the new provider without delay.

For current pension or health care cards a reduced private fee will apply.  There is no charge for veteran affairs card holders.
