Terms and Conditions

* Other than in special circumstances, we ask that fees be paid at the time of consultation. Outstanding accounts will attract a non refundable administration fee of $7.50

* Doctor and nurse time replying to patient emails and portal messages will incur a fee for the staff time taken. We will usually waive this charge if the query both directly relates to the topic of an appointment with us within 5 days of the message and can be dealt with in three minutes or less. Please expect a fee of $20-$40 for most matters that do not fit these exclusions.

* Telephone or video appointments cost the same as face to face appointments. If your condition can’t be safely assessed in a telephone or video call you will need a separate face to face appointment which will have a separate charge. Our receptionists can guide you on whether a telehealth appointment is likely to be adequate. All first assessments of injuries require a face to face appointment. If in doubt please book a face to face appointment for safer care.

* We are a Southern Cross affiliated provider and for those patients with Southern Cross Health Insurance we are able to make direct claims on your behalf, for any services for which you have cover.
