Urgent Appointments
If you require an urgent appointment for an injury please ask your GP to contact our staff directly on 02 4920 6338 so we can make sure you are seen quickly.
Surgery
If the surgeon believes that surgery is the best option for you, our staff will go through the cost of the procedure with you to obtain financial consent prior to your surgery. It is not possible to give an estimate of the costs of any possible surgery prior to your appointment with the surgeon. The final out of pocket expense to you will depend on your insurance cover.
