Making an appointment.
All consultations are by appointments only. Appointments with our Doctors are made directly through our practice number. Please contact our practice on 9412 2822 to arrange for your appointment. Please ensure your contact details are current and up to date, so that we can contact you for appointment related issues.
An SMS reminder will be sent 1 week prior to your booked appointment, where your appointment will be confirmed. Our Doctors have a waiting list for patients requesting urgent appointments and the time for next available appointments can be quite long. It is therefore important that you confirm your availability for the appointment or cancel the appointment by responding to the SMS or contacting the practice directly, so that the appointment time can be offered to one of the other patients on the waiting list.
There will be a 'failure to attend' fee for appointments where patients fail to attend the scheduled appointment that is not cancelled within 24 hours, and booking of forward appointments may not be made until the outstanding account is paid.
医生诊症时间仅限预約。

诊症一周前,接待人员会发出短信。我们依托你的诚意答复。
We accept the following payment options: Cash, EFTPOS, Visa, Mastercard and American Express.
