Fees
Procedures may incur a fee. Please pay at the time of your consultation by cash, cheque or EFTPOS. Discount rates apply if paid on the day.
Test results
You can get your test results over the phone in the afternoons. Reception will help put you through.
Home visits
House calls are limited to exceptional circumstances, within Balaklava, or in Auburn and Port Wakefield when a doctor is in town.
01
Health checks and medicals
Regular check-ups for every stage of life, from childhood through to over-75 health assessments. We also do medicals for work, sport, insurance and driving.
02
Chronic disease care
Living with diabetes, heart disease, asthma, COPD or another long-term condition? Your GP can put together a care plan with you and coordinate the other health professionals involved in your care. The practice nurses help with regular reviews between appointments.
03
Heart and lung tests
- ECG (electrocardiogram): a quick, painless recording of your heart's rhythm, done here at the clinic.
- Spirometry: a breathing test that measures how well your lungs work. It's often used to help diagnose and monitor asthma and COPD.
04
Women's health and pregnancy
- Contraception and family planning advice
- Cervical screening
- Pregnancy testing
- Antenatal care through your pregnancy
If you'd prefer to see a female doctor, let reception know when you book.
05
Vaccinations
Childhood vaccinations on the National Immunisation Program schedule, plus flu, COVID-19 and travel vaccines.
For travel, book 6 to 8 weeks before you leave if you can, as some vaccines need more than one dose.
06
Skin checks and minor procedures
- Stitching cuts (suturing)
- Removing skin lesions
- Freezing sunspots and warts with liquid nitrogen
Noticed a spot that's new or changing? Book in and have it looked at.
07
Hospital care, surgery and anaesthetics
The clinic's doctors provide surgical and anaesthetic services at Balaklava Hospital, so some procedures can be done locally rather than in Adelaide. We also look after patients in hospital, including palliative care, and provide a 24-hour emergency service with the hospital.
08
Visiting specialists
A number of specialists visit the clinic, which can save you the trip to the city.
Ask reception who is visiting and when.
