    Practice Fees

    Private Fee Changes

    Fee changes will occur from 1st July 2025 to maintain an environment where we can provide you with the quality of service you deserve. We aim to keep your overall out-of-pocket expense to a minimum, while maintaining the highest possible standard of care.
    Fee Schedule 1st July 2025

    WEEKDAY CONSULTATION

    Billing Changes – From 4th of September 2023 we are unable to offer bulk-billing for children under 16 or pension/healthcare card holders, however discount rates are available on weekdays. Please check with reception for details.

    Out of pocket expenses depend on length and type of consult, we are able to process Medicare rebates at the time of paying in order to minimise your out of pocket expenses.

    Walk-in appointments are available however wait times may vary.

    Patients without a Medicare Card can pay privately, and claim rebates back from private health fund or travel insurance where appropriate.

    WEEKEND CONSULTATIONS

    We are a fully private billing practice on weekends and public holidays.

    Please note that consultations on Public Holidays attract a higher fee to the usual schedule as these are considered after-hours consultations.

    NON-ATTENDANCE POLICY

    Please note a Non-Attendance Fee is payable if a patient does not attend their doctors appointment or if the appointment is cancelled with less than two hours notice. The payable fee is $50 for Weekdays or $60 for Weekends and Public Holidays.

    If a patient fails to give 48 hours notice or does not attend an allied health appointment, a Non-Attendance Fee of 50% of the consult fee will need to be paid.

    VACCINES AND PROCEDURES

    For all vaccination and procedural costs please ask one of our friendly receptionists. Your doctor will explain any additional costs to you and obtain your consent prior to receiving treatment.

    • Any consultations requiring additional services may be charged a procedural equipment fee.
    • Travel vaccines will incur a private fee also for the purchase of the vaccine as they are not covered by Medicare.
