Appointment Information

Using our online booking system, you can easily make an appointment at any time by clicking here.

You can also book via phone by calling Gisborne Medical Centre on 03 5428 3355 during opening hours.

A standard consultation time is 15 minutes.

To ensure continuity of care, we will always try to book you in with your usual doctor unless you specifically request another doctor.

If you have an urgent medical issue during opening hours, please call our reception staff, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

In a medical emergency, please call 000 and ask for an ambulance.

If you have numerous or complex medical issues or require a procedure, a longer consultation may be required. In this instance, please book a longer consultation or call to discuss your situation with our reception staff.

We understand situations may arise where you are unable to attend your scheduled appointment. If this occurs, we respectfully ask you to provide a minimum of 2 hours notice before your appointment by cancelling your appointment via our online booking system or by phoning our practice. We will happily reschedule your appointment.

If you cancel within the 2 hours or do not attend your scheduled appointment, a non-attendance fee of $50.00 will apply. If you have a cancellation fee, it will require payment before you can schedule another appointment.

The doctors want to be available for your needs and the needs of all their patients. When a patient does not attend a scheduled appointment, another patient loses the opportunity to be seen.

Thank you for being a valued patient and for your cooperation with this policy.

Patients are only required to pay for their first consultation in full. All future accounts for work related injuries (Work Cover) or Motor Vehicle related injuries (Transport Accident Commission) will be billed through LanternPay to your employer.
