Our Fee Policy

We are a private practice, with time-based standard consultation fees.

All fees must be paid at time of consultation. We accept cash, credit (American Express, Visa and Mastercard) and debit/EFTPOS cards.

There may be other fees that apply to particular types of consultations and procedures, for example consultations related to mental health issues, or minor surgical procedures.

Please ask our reception team for more information

Other Fees

Early Appointments

Appointments prior to 8:00 a.m. and on weekends or public holidays attract a minimum $15.00 surcharge.

​

Home Visits

We offer home visits in urgent cases, for regular patients who are unable to attend the surgery. Fees start at $240.00 for locations within the Woollahra postcode, and will be higher for further travel distance.

​

Prescriptions & Referrals

Prescriptions and referrals generally require a consultation, but if the doctor consents to providing this without an appointment, please note that a $46.00 fee covers our time and administration costs for this service.

​

Cancellations

Patients that do not attend an appointment without providing 24 hours notice of cancellation will still be charged a standard consultation fee (no medicare rebate applicable). Further appointments will not be able to be made until this fee is paid.

Long Consultations

The fees range from $270-$395 for long consultations

About Medicare

Medicare Australia provides a rebate for many medical consultation items, as a taxpayer-funded contribution towards the cost of your healthcare. Most Australian citizens and permanent residents qualify for this rebate, as well as visiting citizens from countries that have a reciprocal healthcare agreement with Australia.

In order to claim your rebate, you must bring your current Medicare card and your EFTPOS/debit card with you to the practice. We can approve the rebate for most consultation items on the spot, via our HICAPS terminal. The Medicare rebate is then deposited immediately into your cheque or savings account.

Some items and combinations of items are not able to be claimed via our HICAPS terminal, as they need to be verified by a Medicare agent prior to payment.

In these cases, you will need to:

• visit a Medicare office, or
• complete a mail-in Medicare claim form, or
• submit your own claim online via www.my.gov.au
