We are a private billing practice, however we do bulk bill immunisations, Care Plans and DVA patients.

Prescriptions and repeat prescriptions
All repeat prescriptions will require a consultation. Prescriptions run out at a specific time mandated by the PBS in order to facilitate a review of their effectiveness and any side effects.
We encourage you to request any due medications during your consultation.
Referrals
If you need a referral to a specialist, a scan or a blood test you must attend an appointment.
It is a requirement of all medical practices that we do not provide referrals without a consultation taking place first. Please be advised that referrals cannot be backdated.
Medical certificates
All requests for medical certificates require a consultation with your doctor. We do not issue medical certificates without you attending an appointment with your doctor and we are not permitted to issue certificates retrospectively.
Worker's Compensation
All worker's compensation consultations accounts must be paid on the day. Unfortunately we are unable to assist patients from other practices. Dr Macrossan can not complete any new compensation claims.
Online Appointments
We offer a quick, convenient and confidential online booking service via HealthEngine. Their app is available for all mobile phones.
