Not all our doctors bulk bill Centrelink issued card or under 16 patients, please ensure you check when making an appointment of any costs that may be involved.

When you visit Mannum Medical Centre for the first time, you’ll be welcomed into a friendly and patient-focused environment dedicated to the care of you and your family. Upon arrival, you’ll be asked to complete a patient information form (a printable version is available above). Based on your health concerns, for example obstetrics or skin cancer, you may be matched with a particular doctor for an initial consultation.

Our team is committed to providing personalised care, and you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your condition in detail with a highly skilled practitioner who will work with you to develop a tailored approach to your health and wellbeing.

To help us give you the best care possible, it’s a good idea to let reception know what your appointment is about when you book. That way, we can make sure your doctor has enough time and is prepared with anything needed for your visit. Providing this information in advance helps us deliver more efficient, personalised care tailored to your specific needs.

All test results and reports from specialist visits must be discussed with a doctor during a follow-up appointment. We recommend booking this appointment approximately two weeks after your test to allow time for results to be received and reviewed. This ensures your doctor can provide accurate information and appropriate next steps for your care.

Require an appointment with a Doctor.

It is in your best interest to see a Doctor each time you require a script for medication.

Require an appointment with a Doctor.

This includes if it is a follow up requested by the specialist and it has been more than 12 months since the initial appointment with the specialist.

Please contact a nurse at the clinic who will discuss with the GP who will then decide if a home visit is necessary, safe and reasonable to do so. When requesting a home visit please explain the urgency and location. A clinic consultation, phone consultation, help-line advice or ambulance transfer may be more appropriate.

Note: You may be charged an $80 fee for non attendance or short notice fee cancellations.

When a patient fails to attend a booked appointment it results in another patient missing out on an opportunity of seeing their preferred Doctor.
