Appointments

Walk-ins

We normally require people to make a booking but we can sometimes help if you walk into the medical centre. Priority is given to people who have made a booking. 

Appointments

Our appointment system caters for urgent, non urgent, complex, planned chronic care and preventative healthcare. If you need more time with your GP, please book a long consultation. Urgent appointments will be seen by the next available GP. Please advise reception if you believe you require an urgent appointment. Urgent appointments will be triaged by the nurse on duty.

Cancellation of Appointments

If you need to cancel your appointment, please do so within 4 hours or longer before your appointment time so that we can fit other patients into your time.  A cancellation fee may apply if you cancel less than 4 hours before your appointment or if you are a non-attendance. Thank you for your understanding.

Waiting Times

Sometimes GPs are delayed by patients with urgent or complex issues. We apologise if you’re asked to wait and thank you for your patience.

After Hours

For appointments out of hours, please call DoctorDoctor on 13 26 60.

Home Visits

If you are a regular patient and can’t travel to the medical centre, your GP may be able to visit you at your home. This is at the discretion of your GP.
