You don't have to be one of our patients to see our Treatment Room Nurse, but some medicare items require a requisition from a doctor (marked in bold above).  For blood tests simply bring the normal requisition that you would take to the hospital.  For other services, ask your doctor to fill out one of our special requisition forms (which can be downloaded here), or to write the request on a prescription pad.  If in doubt call us on 894 7369 for advice or visit our reception desk.

You can either walk in any weekday between 10am and 4pm (1pm on Fridays), or you can call and make an appointment in advance.  Don't forget, you must bring your Health Card with you.

Call us on 894 7369 if you would like to make an appointment to see our Treatment Room Nurse.



* The Treatment Room Nurse used to be called our Walk In Nurse, but we have changed the name because (1) patients were getting confused with the Walk In Clinic doctor downstairs, (2) you can now book appointments with the nurse and saying 'book an appointment with the Walk In Nurse' sounded silly, and (3) Treatment Room nurse is the British name for it and we aiming for a British-style medical practice.
