Frequently asked questions

Please bring your Doctor’s referral letter, the Patient Information Sheet and all applicable investigations (e.g. X-rays, CT scans, MRI, Bone Scan Reports and films or discs).
Consultations in a private setting have an out of pocket fee. Payment at the consultation is required and we accept cash, cheque or Visa/Mastercard. Patients who qualify for a Medicare rebate will have part of the amount refunded from Medicare. Please note it is not our practice to bulk bill.
Our doctors’ surgical fees are based on the Australian Medical Association (AMA)’s recommended fees. Patients with private health insurance may arrange their treatment as a private patient in a hospital, with the majority of the expenses covered by their health fund. If you are covered by TAC, WorkCover, or Defence there will be no cost to you for any surgery you may have. Health funds may not fully cover doctors' fees and an out of pocket expense of the variance is incurred by the patient. We offer our patients a close assessment of the expenses involved.
