Comprehensive Quality Care

As the threat level of COVID-19 is currently low in Tasmania, we continue to offer face-to-face appointments. We also continue to observe social distancing >1.5m and limit the number of patients in our waiting room.

Where there are COVID-19 outbreaks in other states or territories, please ensure you adhere to guidance from the relevant Government authorities.

If you have travelled from a COVID-19 hotspot or have symptoms of cough, fever, sore throat, shortness of breath, or a loss of sense of smell or taste, then a COVID-19 test is necessary. If you are uncertain, please book a telephone consult with your GP, who will discuss and arrange a test if necessary.

For patients with other conditions who would prefer a telephone or video consult, these appointments continue to be available. Please be aware that a private or gap fee may be incurred for telephone or video consults from 1st October 2020. Medicare GP telehealth items are restricted to circumstances where a patient has an existing relationship with a general practice (i.e. the patient has visited a GP in the practice face-to-face in the last 12 months), other than for children aged under 12 months or patients who are homeless.

Call 000 if you need urgent medical assistance.
