The government provides a Medicare rebate to offset the cost of my service to you. Those rebates, however, are designed for clinics with a high turnover of simple presentations, but when dealing with complex and chronic conditions more time is needed to deliver unhurried wholistic high quality care.
That’s the kind of work I choose to do and therefore people who want that kind of care pay just over half the fee, out of their pocket. See below.
Medicare rebates are processed at the time of your appointment and are rebated to your nominated bank account by the next day.
I offer a discount for pensioners and healthcare card holders.
