How do I access urgent appointments?

Do I need a referral for urgent appointments? 

Medical consultations can be booked with or without a referral. However, to claim a Medicare rebate for initial general dermatology consultations, subsequent reviews, and specific treatments, a valid GP referral is required. This referral ensures transparent communication with your general practitioner concerning your medical history, medications, and allergies, enabling us to tailor your appointment precisely to your skin needs. It's important to note that cosmetic consultations do not required a referral.

Your trust in us is highly valued, and we are committed to delivering the highest standard of dermatological care, even in urgent situations.
