Appointments

If your general practitioner feels that you must be seen urgently, please ask them to ring the doctor you have been referred to directly.

We will then try to see you ASAP or redirect you if the condition is more suitably treated in the emergency department.

Should you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, please inform us at least 24 hours prior to your appointment time.

Private Insurance

Bring your Private Health Insurance card which will have the relevant information and also help with payments as we have HICAPS and can claim the rebate immediately. Most insurance companies cover physiotherapy and remedial massage treatment but the coverage and therefore the “gap” will vary with each plan.

Worker’s Compensation Claims, Third Party Claims

Bring your insurance information to your first appointment. This will include your claim number and case manager details. In most circumstances (except for initial commencement of physiotherapy), pre-approval of your visit will need to be obtained from the insurance company.

We look forward to seeing you soon and assisting you back to health!
