Prescription Fee Increase

We apologise for the inconvenience, but we wish to inform you that from 3 April 2023, there will be a $1 increase in prescription fees. We understand that this may not be welcome news, but it is necessary to cover rising operational costs.

It is important to note that we have not increased prescription fees since 2019, and we strive to keep our costs as low as possible while providing quality care to our patients.

It's worth mentioning that prescriptions are not funded in the same way as consultation fees, and unfortunately, there is currently a shortage of doctors nationwide. As a result, appointments are booked up to 2-3 weeks in advance. We encourage you to schedule an appointment or request your medication ahead of time to avoid running out.

Thank you for your understanding, and please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

Some consultations can be virtual/phone consults (normal consult fee applies) and our doctors will advise patients if they need to come into the clinic for a face-to-face consult. If you have cold/flu symptom, on arrival to clinic, please phone reception to advise that you have arrived, and wait in the car until the doctor/nurse calls you to enter the clinic. Face masks must be worn.
