INTERRUPTION TO PHONES

- THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2025 -

There will be an interruption to our phone services from about 9:30 am to 10:30 am on Thursday, December 18, 2025, due to a system upgrade. Although calls will be diverted to our business mobile, you may still have trouble reaching us.

If you cannot get through, you can email us at reception@burtonst.com.au.

Please be patient during this time as we make significant upgrades to serve you better.

We appreciate your understanding.

Thank you

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Due to unavoidable circumstances, several practitioners at Burton Street Family Practice will be on leave between December 2025 and April 2026, as detailed below.

Consequently, there will be a shortage of appointments. 

We, therefore, encourage you to book your appointments in advance, particularly if you require a script or an ongoing referral.

We have a GP Registrar, Dr Nicole Ghedina, starting in February. In the meantime, we will do our best to book you in with another GP.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Changes to Medicare (01.11.2025)

- Important information for our privately-billed patients -

As part of the 2025 - 2026 budget, the government announced a $7.9 billion investment to increase the GP bulk billing rate, including $5.5 billion to expand eligibility for bulk billing incentives to all Medicare-eligible Australians and a further $2.4 billion to create a Bulk Billing Incentive Program.

Unfortunately, these payments still do not cover the full cost of care for our patients. Therefore, to continue to provide the comprehensive, high-quality care you expect and deserve, we will continue to charge a fee after November 1, 2025.

This is not new to our practice; it is a continuation of the fee-paying arrangements we already have in place. 

PLEASE CONTINUE SCROLLING FOR INFORMATION ABOUT COVID VACCINATIONS.
