Patient INFORMATION
Some of our Frequently Asked Questions. If you can’t find what you are looking for, please ensure you contact us so we can assist with your enquiry. Our team is always happy to help.
What should I expect at my initial appointment?
During your initial appointment, a physiotherapist will take a detailed history of your presenting complaint and gain relevant information which will guide the diagnosis and treatment.
A comprehensive physical assessment will also be used to guide the diagnostic process. From this assessment the most effective treatment plan will be implemented for you, specific to your needs and goals.
This may, or may not include massage, mobilisation or dry needling treatment, strength training or a rehabilitation plan.
Your physiotherapist will also educate you about the condition or injury, time to recovery and potential short term or long term outcomes. Following the initial treatment, your physiotherapist may or may not liaise with your doctor, sports physician, specialists, personal trainer or coach as required.
Do I need a referral?
No. You don’t need a referral to see a physiotherapist. However, if you have been referred by another health practitioner, please communicate that to us.
A medical referral from your general practitioner is necessary only if: You have been injured at work and your case is being managed by WorkCover; or your treatment is covered by Veterans Affairs; or you are claiming your treatment expenses through a 3rd party claim.
How do I book an appointment?
Physiotherapy appointments are generally available between 8.30 am – 7.00 pm daily, Monday to Friday. For weekends, please call ahead for available times. To make appointments, you can book online via our website or call the clinic on 03 9020 3900.
An initial appointment usually takes up to 45 minutes for the treatment of a single problem and a follow up standard appointment is 30 minutes. If you require additional time for complex or multiple problems, you may want to book an extended consultation time, which is 45 minutes. Please inform reception on booking if this is the case, or select extended consultation through the online booking platform.
Cancellation Policy
We request at least 24 hours notice for cancellation of appointments, if you are unable to attend your appointment, so that that time may be utilised by other patients requiring treatment. Repeated failure to attend your appointment without cancellation notification may incur a failure to attend fee.
Do you treat WorkCover, Veterans Affairs and TAC Patients?
Yes, we accept TAC, WorkCover and DVA claims. Payment is required on the day if we have not received confirmation that you claim has been accepted and you have reached your TAC, WorkCover or DVA medical threshold.
We bill TAC, DVA and WorkCover directly for your treatment once you have provided a claim number. However, there may be a gap fee to cover the rest of your consultation fee.
Can I use my private health cover at the clinic?
Yes. We have a HICAPs and eftpos facility at reception, which you can use to claim a rebate on your consultation fee, if you have extras cover. If you do not have your health provider card with you at the time of consultation, we will provide the details for you to claim with on our payment receipt.
Cash, EFTPOS and credit card facilities are available.
Is there parking available?
Yes. On street parking is available on Bell street, either side. Off street parking is also available on Edwin Street and surrounds.
