Accessing primary care from GPs can help prevent and manage ill health. Aboriginal patients are a priority for our GPs, who are selected based on their experience working in Aboriginal health. We also select GPs who make the best cultural fit.
Benefits include:
- A comprehensive service and exceptional holistic care
- Transport to and from appointments for patients
- GPs are experienced working in Aboriginal health
- Assistance in the prevention and management of illness to avoid long-term negative outcomes
- Promotion of a good quality of life for all community members
- Wheelchair access
- Access to translating and interpreting services
GP appointments include a 30-minute consultation so patients can discuss their health concerns. GPs practice in a culturally safe manner and show flexibility for patients by providing consultations through appointment as well as walk-ins.
Aboriginal people of all ages and locations can access our GP services, which are available Monday to Thursday from 9am to 5pm and Friday from 9am to 4:30pm.
To make an appointment, call Bunurong Health Service reception on (03) 8902 9700. If you are a new patient, you will be required to complete the registration form on your first visit and present your Medicare card.
For after-hours care please contact Doctor Doctor (formerly trading as Australian Locum Service) on Ph: 13 26 60.
NOTE: Bunurong Health Service is a 100% Bulk-Billing clinic, however some tests and referrals to Specialists and other providers may incur costs. Please ask the Doctor for details during your consultation
