In-Clinic Diagnostics
We offer a range of tests and diagnostics on site, so you can often start your investigations without leaving the clinic:
- ECG (electrocardiogram): a quick, painless test that records your heart’s electrical activity, used to check heart rhythm and other concerns.
- Spirometry: a breathing test that measures how well your lungs are working, useful for assessing conditions such as asthma and COPD.
- On-site pathology: through our pathology partner, making blood tests and sample collection convenient.
Telehealth Appointments
Telehealth (phone or video) consultations are available to existing patients who have had a recent face-to-face appointment with our clinic, in line with Medicare eligibility rules. Telehealth can be convenient for things like discussing results, simple follow-ups, and some prescriptions. Our reception team can let you know if telehealth is suitable for your needs.
Appointments and Walk-ins
You can book an appointment by phone, online, or through HotDoc, and walk-ins are welcome subject to availability. For new patients, or if you have several things to discuss, we recommend booking a longer appointment so there’s enough time to cover everything properly.
