Each time you present to our clinic you will be asked to provide 3 points of identification, which may include your full name, date of birth, address, or a Medicare/pension/health care card number.

Waiting times

However, in case this is not possible we ask for your understanding and patience. Delays may be caused by unforeseen circumstances that might require urgent or prolonged attention by our medical staff.
