The Doctors at Wellers Hill Medical Centre are regularly fully booked and because of this we have patients who miss out on appointments and are on our waiting list to be seen in case of a cancellation.

We do understand that things pop up and you may need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, however, we do ask that you provide us with at least 1 hour notice prior to your appointment time so that we can attempt to fit in other patients.

 As of the 24th of February 2020, in the event that you do not provide us with enough notice, you will be sent an account for a non-attendance fee of $55 incl GST. This amount is not claimable through Medicare.
