Our services
Our
surgery
is committed to providing comprehensive care to all patients. We offer consultations in the broad range of general practice, with special interest in:
- Women's health
- Travel medicine (approved yellow fever vaccination provider)
- Preventative medicine
- Mental health
- Specific disease management (eg asthma, diabetes)
- Counselling
- Hypnotherapy
We believe your health is best managed by continuous care from the same source, rather than taking different problems to different places. But we will refer you for specialist opinions, investigations and treatment when necessary.
Your privacy
Your medical record is a confidential document. It is the policy of this practice to maintain security of medical information at all times and to ensure that this information is only available to authorised members of staff or persons authorised by law.
For your privacy and confidentiality, we do not relay results over the phone. We may ring to let you know when the results are available and arrange an appointment for you to come in for review.
Complaints
If you have a complaint please discuss it with your doctor. We will do our best to make things better. If you are not satisfied you may contact the Health Complaints Commissioner on (02) 9219 7444.
