Making an appointment

When making an appointment, please:

  • Where possible, plan ahead of time
  • Indicate clearly your name, address and file number (if known)
  • Advise if more than one family member will require an appointment at this time
  • Give us an indication of the problem, While this is kept confidential this will help us allow the provision of extra time
  • Staff endeavour to be on time, but at times due to the workload being unpredictable, there can be delays.
  • Your patience is appreciated but if you have concerns discuss this with the Reception Team.

Cancellation & Missed Appointments fee

A cancellation is considered late when the appointment is cancelled less than 24 hours before the appointed time. A no-show is when a patient misses an appointment without cancelling or arriving more than 5 minutes late. In either case, we will charge the patient a $25 

For new patients’ first appointments, a no-show or late cancellation will result in a full charge of the new patient fee. This fee may be waived at our discretion for emergency reasons.
