Garden City Medical Centre Fees & Appointments

Fees and Payments

Fees

Garden City Medical Centre is a mixed billing practice. Medicare and concession cards must be presented before each consultation. Saturday consultations are strictly private billing only.

Making Payments

Payment is required on the day of the consultation and can be made by cash, EFTPOS or Credit Card (excluding Diners and AMEX cards). All workers compensation and motor vehicle accident patients are required to pay their accounts at the time of consultation until a letter of liability is produced from their insurance company.

Appointments

Cancellation Policy

If you're unable to attend your appointment please provide at least 2 hours' notice otherwise we will charge a $45 fee.

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.

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.
