COMMUNICATION WITH THE DOCTOR

• Most problems are best dealt with in a consultation.
• Patients are able to obtain advice or information related to their care where the doctor determines that a face-to-face consultation is unnecessary via telephone.
• Our telephones are answered by trained staff.
• Please give staff as much information as possible so that the most appropriate assistance is given to you. 
• Electronic communication (emails, fax) are not a preferred option and is not encouraged.
• Please advise of any change in address or personal details to assist in keeping our records up-to-date.

TEST RESULTS AND GENERAL ENQUIRIES

• Due to busy phone lines we prefer general enquiries to be made between 10 am and 4 pm Monday to Friday.
• Your doctor will normally require you to attend an appointment for test results and follow up.
• In some circumstances the doctor will advise you that it is appropriate for you to call the medical centre for results of investigations. Check with your doctor.

REMINDER SYSTEM
