Receiving and returning phone calls and electronic communications

All urgent phone communications are given to the practices’ Registered Nurses on duty to triage and follow up with the Medical Practitioner concerned. All non-urgent patient communication with our Practitioners is passed on by our reception team.

Appointments

It is advisable to make an appointment; however, we do our best to assist all walk-in patients within a reasonable time.  Standard appointments are 15mins, if you require a long appointment please request an appointment of 30mins. Emergencies and booked appointments have priority. Please be advised that fees may apply if appointments are missed without prior cancellation.
Online appointments are also available on our website or through the HotDoc app. HotDoc is available for download via Google Play and the Apple App store.

Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Patients

To help ensure that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people receive primary health care matched to their needs our doctors can assist with early detection, diagnosis and treatment for common conditions.
There are 3 health assessments available to different age groups to assist in their physical, psychological and social well being. Health Assessments are available to children under 15 years old, adults between 15 and 55 years old and patients aged 55 years and older.

Once a health assessment has been completed, patients are eligible for further support and treatment from practice nurses or allied health services.

The closing the gap program is available to patients who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander living with, or at risk of, chronic disease. Once enrolled in the program, eligible patients will benefit from lower or no costs when purchasing PBS medications.

When you request an appointment at the clinic for insurance/employment examinations please request a double appointment.  Please remember to fill out your part of the form and bring it along with you to the consultation along with a urine sample where possible.

Repeat Prescriptions, Referrals and Test Results

It is the policy of this clinic that all prescriptions, referrals or test results require an appointment. In some circumstances a script/referral may be written incurring a fee of $20..
In the event your result is urgent or you require any type of follow up, our Practice nurses will be in contact with you either via telephone or SMS.

Telephoning Your Doctor

The doctors will not receive telephone calls while seeing other patients as this call will be interrupting someone else’s consultation with the doctor, however, they will return your call. It would be preferable for you to make an appointment with your doctor to discuss your issues or needs.  This gives the doctor the opportunity to concentrate on you exclusively.  So, if they are seeing patients when you phone, they may need to return your call as soon as possible throughout the day.  The reception staff may recommend to speak with a practice nurse whilst you wait for your doctor in the meantime.

Electronic Communication
You may email the clinic for general enquiries. Our emails are dealt with in a 24-hour time period during surgery hours. In certain circumstances we may communicate via email with you. In exchanging your information, you acknowledge that email is not recognised as a secure method of communication and we cannot guarantee the confidentiality of your information.
