Things worth checking with any clinic
- Follow-up fee. If you have regular follow-ups, this fee adds up over a year.
- Who you speak with first. Some clinics start with a nurse call, others go straight to a doctor or practitioner.
- Phone or video. Some clinics only offer phone, some only video, some both.
- Switching. Ask whether you need to get a discharge letter yourself, or whether the clinic requests your records for you.
- Practitioner registration. You can check any practitioner on the public register at ahpra.gov.au.
