We offer same day and/or walk-in appointments for injured workers. A short wait may be required for walk-in appointments, but please be assured our team will endeavour to see you as soon as possible.
When making your booking, try and provide the receptionist with enough information to ensure the appropriate time is allocated. For example, a skin check or a minor surgical procedure will require a longer appointment than a repeat prescription.
