Arrive 10 minutes early

Please arrive 10 minutes before your appointment to complete your paperwork. Bring any current scans, imaging or reports relevant to your condition — these help your practitioner assess you more thoroughly.

Your initial consultation

Your practitioner will take a thorough case history, discuss your symptoms and goals, and carry out a physical examination. Depending on your condition, you may be asked to undress to your underwear for the examination. Gowns and towel draping are available.

Treatment and next steps

Following the assessment, your practitioner will discuss their findings and, where appropriate, provide treatment in the same appointment. They will recommend a care plan tailored to your condition and goals.

Payment

Fees are due at the time of your visit. We accept credit card, EFTPOS and cash. HICAPS on-the-spot claiming is available if you have Extras cover — bring your health fund card. If you’re claiming via Medicare (CDM / EPC), bring your GP referral.
