Non Medicare Card Holders / Fees
Each doctor within the practice has set fees for private paying patients. Billing will depend upon the services provided during your consultation. All accounts need to be settled on the day, after your consultation. Information on fees is available on request. As a guide, standard consultation fees range from $40.00 – $80.00.
Payment Methods
Our policy is that payments are to be made on the day of consultation. Accepted payment method is cash or EFTPOS facilities are available.
