Contacting your Doctor - prescriptions, referrals, results etc

If you request prescriptions, referrals, results etc by telephone, email or mail you will be asked to make an appointment with your preferred doctor.

Prescriptions

Our doctors are happy to fax prescriptions to your pharmacy, however the original will need to be collected by yourself or a family member and taken to the pharmacy.

Results

Results of tests are best discussed at a follow up appointment with your preferred doctor.
