January News Update

CHANGE IN HOURS:

Just a reminder that the practice is not open until 9am on Wednesday’s.

PAYMENT PLANS:

Putting off seeing the Doctor due to the cost? You can set up an AP with regular amounts going onto your account. Having an AP in place means you get the $5 prompt payment discount on Doctor standard consults (excludes ACC and Nurse consults) and ensures you can confidently make your next appointment without worrying about the cost. Talk to our reception staff if this is something you are interested in doing.

REPEAT PRESCRIPTIONS:

Medication repeats can be requested via our repeat prescription service. To provide this service for our 23,000 patients we employ a qualified nurse on a full time basis. Your health records are checked and if there is no other reason that you might need to see the Doctor, a script is generated and goes to the Doctor for checking and signing. This service attracts a fee of $13.00 for a standard 2 day turn around or $25 if the request is urgent. You can avoid the urgent charge by checking your medications regularly and ensuring you get requests for repeats in early.
