No, you don’t need a doctor’s referral to attend our clinic. If however you are attending, physiotherapy as part of a claim, e.g. Work or Motor Vehicle accident you will require a referral in order to claim cost of treatment.
Your initial consultation will normally take between 30-40mins and a follow up consultation anywhere between 20-30mins. Your session is commonly a mix of “hands on, exercise prescription and ergonomic/management advice”. There may be times, if you present with a more complex issue or multiple injury areas, where the physio may suggest you have an extended or double appointment but this will always be discussed with you prior to this occurring.
In some cases your problems may be related to each other, e.g. neck/shoulder. However if multiple body parts are bothering you please keep in mind that your physiotherapist may not be able to attend all issues in one appointment. We recommend that you book an extended or double appointment to allow enough time to fully assess all issues if you are aware of the need or your physio will prioritise your initial management and then advice of any need for future extended treatment /assessment.
No. Our physiotherapists do not require previous imaging results in order to assess your problem and provide treatment as their physical examination will be guided by what they have assessed from questioning you. If during the assessment, they feel that further investigation is warranted before treatment they will advise and refer you. If however you have already had an X-ray/MRI etc. please bring along the report.
We are a private clinic and don’t offer bulk billing so there will be a small gap fee to pay – please feel free to phone Jas for more information. However, you are still able to claim your Medicare rebate when attending our clinic. We are able to process your rebate using Medicare Easy claim. Please bring along your Medicare card as well as a debit card, which is linked to a savings or cheque account (to deposit your rebate).
If your private health insurance includes ‘Extras’ it will definitely cover at least part of your treatment and you will only have to cover the gap payment. Please contact your insurer to find out how much they will contribute to physiotherapy sessions.
Yes, we do welcome patients who require physiotherapy due to an accident at their workplace. Please bring along your current “Worker’s compensation medical certificate” which you would have received from your treating GP. In order for payment to go through WorkCover it is essential that you have an open claim. Please feel free to give us a call and we can check this for you. All approved physiotherapy treatment must be covered by a current medical certificate at all times.
