What information do I need to provide when booking an appointment?When booking, please provide your full name, contact information, preferred date and time, and the reason for your visit. For first-time visits, having a referral from your doctor to claim the fee from medicare is helpful.
-
What are the consultation fees, and is there a Medicare rebate available?The fee for an initial consultation ranges from $320 to $350. Fees for subsequent visits range from $175 to $250. If you are eligible for a Medicare rebate, the subsidy will be processed at the time of your appointment.
-
What should I bring to my appointment?You should bring your referral letter, Medicare card, health fund card (if applicable), any relevant X-rays or imaging, and a list of your current medications. This will ensure your consultation proceeds smoothly and efficiently.
-
How Long Does It Take to Get an Appointment?The waiting time varies depending on the urgency of your case. We prioritise urgent patients and aim to see them within 1–2 working days. For non-urgent cases, the waiting time may be longer.
-
How soon can I schedule my surgery?The timeline for scheduling depends on the urgency of your condition, your choice of hospital, and availability. Urgent cases are prioritised, and private hospitals often offer more flexibility with dates.
-
What is the difference between public and private hospitals?Public hospitals provide care funded by the government, typically at little or no cost to the patient, but wait times can be longer. Private hospitals offer faster access to surgery, greater choice of surgeons, and more personalised care but may involve out-of-pocket costs unless covered by private health insurance.
-
What should I bring on the day of surgery?You’ll receive a checklist that includes items such as your Medicare or private health insurance card, any medications you’re taking, and hard copies of images you have. You also might have been asked to bring a surgical bra or garment to the theatre.
-
What is the cost of the first appointment?The cost ranges between $250 and $450, depending on the type of consultation. Medicare rebates or private health insurance may apply to eligible patients.
-
How soon can I start treatment?The timeline for starting treatment depends on your specific condition. Urgent cases are prioritised, and we aim to begin your care as soon as possible.
-
Can I bring someone with me?Absolutely. You are welcome to bring a family member or friend to support you during your appointment.
-
Do I need a referral to book an appointment?A referral is not always necessary, but it may be required for certain treatments or to claim Medicare rebates. Contact us to confirm.
-
Will any tests or procedures be done during my first visit?In most cases, your first visit will involve a consultation and physical examination. If additional tests are required, such as imaging or biopsies, these will be scheduled separately or discussed during your appointment.
-
How long will my first appointment take?Your first appointment typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the complexity of your case.
