Two hour cancellation policy.
A fee will apply if you do not provide at least two hours’ notice of your cancellation or non-attendance. This fee will need to be paid prior to your next appointment. Each Allied Health Practitioner set their own policies so please ask at Reception.
As of 1 July 2023, appointments on Saturdays will incur an additional charge of $5 and bulk billing policies will no longer apply. Those holding health care cards or pension cards will be charged at a reduced rate.
These changes are to help cover the costs of remaining open on a Saturday so we can continue to provide our patients with weekend appointments.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Need a prescription or referral? Please book an appointment.
We ask our patients to respect your Doctor’s already very busy day and plan ahead to make sure your referrals are in date and you have enough medication to last to your next appointment.

A reminder about telehealth appointments
To be eligible for Medicare rebates on telehealth fees you must have had a face to face appointment in the clinic in the last 12 months. Please note that there may be circumstances when your doctor will need to arrange a face-to-face consultation after your Telehealth consultation, in order to complete their assessment and examination.
Adelaide Health Care requires private billing for telehealth consultations in line with all consultation costs. This means that there may be a fee payable for your phone consultation. You will receive a phone call from our reception staff after your consultation to make the payment.
Child & Adolescent Virtual Urgent Care
The Women’s and Children’s hospital provides this new service 7 days a week from 1:00pm to 8.30pm.
This service is staffed by highly skilled paediatric emergency nurses and doctors who will assess your child and provide advice or referral to an appropriate service for ongoing care. For more information: https://www.wch.sa.gov.au/emergencies/virtual-urgent-care
SMS Reminders
Adelaide Health Care uses the HotDoc reminder systems for appointment reminders, and recalls such as vaccinations, cervical screening and other health reviews Reminders are sent via SMS.
Appointments
Additional appointments become available every day, which are released each morning. Please call or book online though HotDoc.
Phone lines open from 7:45am Weekdays and 8:30am Saturdays.
Test Results
Results that can be given over the phone, will be done by you calling Reception between 1-5 pm each day. It is common that you may be asked to book an appointment with you doctor to discuss your results.
We are limiting requests for printed paper results via Reception (this includes requests for email copies). If you require a paper record, this can be requested during your next appointment at the Practice. Electronic results can be uploaded to your MyHealth Record for your future reference.

All artwork is by local artists and rotated every 4 months. All artwork is available for purchase. For more information on the current artist and purchasing details please ask at reception.
An Environmentally-Friendly Practice
We are concerned about the impact of climate change and the overall health of our planet. To reduce energy use we have installed solar panels, changed to low energy use light bulbs and have recently had an energy use audit offered by Adelaide City Council. We have an ongoing project to reduce the amount of office and medical materials going to landfill and are using a variety of recycling programs, including for soft plastics and bio-waste. We are also changing the products we use to more environmentally friendly options such as ‘Who Gives a Crap’ Toilet Paper. Keep an eye out, there are more changes to come!
