PRACTICE DETAILS
Our mission is to change the face of General Practice in Australia. To bring the trust and value and high level of care back to General Practice, to truly be your specialist in life, and to inspire other GPs to do the same. By doing this we want to maximize the health and well-being of as many Australians as possible.
We understand what it means that you have chosen us to look after your health. We don’t take that trust for granted.
We will provide you with consistent exceptional care, no matter which doctor or nurse you see. For every single problem, every single time.
We will build strong, lasting connections with you and your family. You will always be treated as though you are family.
By doing this, it is our dream that you will actually want to come and see us. That you will feel supported, cared for and unjudged. And you will work with us to do everything we can together, to maintain your, and your families health and happiness now and into the future.
We also operate as a teaching practice for the University of Queensland, Griffith University and Bond University. The doctors have long established relationships with specialists and public and private hospitals on the Gold Coast, making the transition to specialist and inpatient care much easier for its patients.

REFERRALS
A consultation with your doctor is legally required by the Health Department for a referral to a specialist.
Fees may apply to appointments with Specialists, Allied Health, Pathology or Radiology providers. Please ask those providers for details of their fees when making your referred appointments
RESULTS
We encourage you to make an appointment to discuss results. However we do provide a results messaging service via our online booking partner. Patients are notified if results are ‘normal’, or if the doctor has recommended a ‘non-urgent’ or ‘urgent’ follow up appointment. It is the responsibility of patients to ensure they receive a message regarding their results, and to act on the advice provided. If you do not hear from the clinic, then please make direct contact via phone to follow up.
