Appointment information:
Our Centres and Daily Clinics are specially created environments,
designed to help you get the most out of the program and to give
time for proper diagnosis and treatment. They provide an ideal
situation where you will feel comfortable to talk frankly and feel
confident that your needs are at last being understood and fully
taken care of.
Our doctors do not bulk bill but all consultations are Medicare
rebateable. Individuals also vary widely in their needs, so charges
may vary slightly from man to man. Charges may also vary slightly
between States.
Doctors at the Centres are experienced and independent GPs who have
a special interest in men's health. They have received special
training and development in hormonal problems in men and their
treatment with Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
This is a comprehensive diagnostic investigation designed to identify
whether or not your symptoms are caused by a hormonal disturbance or
imbalance and not from other causes. |
Health Check
& Consultation
In the course of the medical examination we have made a
number of life saving discoveries for patients,
identifying other causes of symptoms, such as heart, thyroid and
prostate problems. It is a very worthwhile and cost effective check
up to have and costs as little as $255 - $285 with $60-89 recoverable under Medicare.
Follow up appointments are $115 - $135 with a $32-60 rebate. It
represents a very good value investment in your health.

Because of the need to ensure that HRT is the relevant treatment for
your symptoms and that it is safe for you to receive hormone replacement
medication, the first consultation is a long one from about 40 minutes to an
hour in duration.
|
Follow
Up
If a hormone replacement programme is
appropriate for you, follow up visits usually take 20 minutes. It is important
that your progress is properly monitored so that we can ensure you get the best
possible results. After treatment has started, a follow up visit is usually only
needed after 6 weeks, then at three months and thereafter at 6 monthly
intervals. Telephone consultations for progress monitoring can also sometimes be
arranged where appropriate but these do not attract a Medicare rebate.
