​Appointments & Fees

Appointments

​To make an appointment please click the Book Online button above, or use the HotDoc app on your SmartPhone.

Alternatively you can call us on (03) 9725 5444 weekdays between 9.00 am - 5.30 pm.  Every effort will be made to accommodate your preferred time and GP. 

Emergencies will always be given priority and our reception staff will attempt to contact you if there is any unforeseen delay or your GP has been called away. 

Longer consultation times are available if required so please ask our receptionists if you require some extra time or if your doctor has requested it.

We would appreciate that you arrive on time for your appointment and check in at reception.  Late arrivals may have a long wait or may have to reschedule the appointment.
​
If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment we would appreciate a phone call so that we can offer the appointment to other patients.
