Urgent Appointments

Urgent appointments will be taken 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.

Walk-Ins

Walk-ins are accepted, however there may be an unavoidable wait as priority is given to patients who have a booked appointment with their GP. All patients should present to reception with their current Medicare Card. At times you may experience a waiting period due to GPs tending to urgent or complex medical issues. We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Privacy Policy

Management of Patient Health Information – Our medical centre complies with all confidentiality and privacy obligations. Please refer to our privacy policy, or request a copy from reception. Our privacy policy can also be found here.

Recall / Reminder System

Our centre participates in the national, state or territory directory reminder systems, and centre specific reminder systems, which inform you of recurring healthcare issues such as annual checkups, care planning and immunisations. Please advise reception if you do not wish to receive reminders. Patients will be contacted for recall where clinically indicated.

Telephone Policy

Most issues are best dealt with in consultation with your GP – who will endeavour to take your call where practical. At times, your GP may be attending to other patients and may need to return your call. Please inform our reception staff if your call is urgent.

Test Results & Referrals

Test results can be obtained in a booked consultation or we will arrange a mutually convenient time to call you with your results. Referrals to specialists must be made during a consultation and will not be provided from a phone request. In unavoidable circumstances GPs may provide repeat referrals or scripts, however this is done at the GP’s discretion and may incur a fee.

Vaccinations

Waiting Times

We book most consultations as standard consultations and do our best to keep to these times to prevent inconvenient delays to you. If you feel that you require a consultation longer than a standard consultation, please inform the staff at reception and they will try and accommodate your needs. When there is an urgent situation eg. a patient has a heart attack, this will take precedence over booked patients and may create unforeseen delays.

Repeat Prescriptions

In order to monitor your health and fulfil our ethical and legal responsibilities, we require that you attend your doctor (or if your usual doctor is unavailable, one of the other doctors) in order to receive further prescriptions for your medications.

Medical Certificate

A medical certificate may only be issued after an examination by a doctor, so you will need to make an appointment to see the doctor.

Health Assessments & Care Plans

Our practice can provide Health Assessments & Care Plans through our CDM Health Nurse.

Cancellation Policy

We understand that unplanned issues can come up and you may need to cancel an appointment. If that happens, we respectfully ask for scheduled appointments to be cancelled at least 3 hours in advance for General Practitioners. Our doctors want to be available for your needs and the needs of all our patients. When a patient does not show for a scheduled appointment, another patient loses an opportunity to be seen. There will be a fee of $50 ($25 for concession card holders) assessed if we do not receive a call to cancel the appointment. No part of this fee is claimable from Elite Med. Failure to attend appointments without sufficient notice will result in a letter informing the patient of their non-arrival. Should a patient not attend their appointment three times in a row without cancellation and has not paid the fee, patient may be asked to seek treatment elsewhere.

Communication Privacy Policy

The policies on receiving and returning phone calls and electronic communications may vary at our independent Medical Practitioners. All urgent phone and electronic 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 Independent Medical Practitioners is passed on by our reception team. All correspondence is triaged to ensure the information is given to the appropriate staff member or Independent Medical Practitioner in a timely manner.
