GP Services
General Practitioners – Australia’s family doctors – are specialists in their own right. A GP is trained to treat the whole person and to care for people of all ages, all walks of life, and with all types of medical issues and concerns. GPs are concerned about preventative health and are the best placed to advise about how to stay healthy and well.
The experienced and caring doctors consulting from our location have the expertise to manage physical and psychological conditions, disorders, and injuries, prescribe medications and treatment to promote and restore your best health.
If you have a health issue, the first person you usually go to see is your GP. They will decide whether you need to see another health professional. If needed, they will give you a referral to see a specialist in a certain medical area or refer you to other health professionals. You can’t get a Medicare rebate if you see a specialist without having a referral from your GP first. If you need to see several different health professionals, your GP will coordinate your care.
