Appointment availability in 2025 for children with medical, feeding, sleeping and continence issues and limited appointments with some Drs for children referred with developmental/ behavioural issues. Please see further information under each doctor in 'Paediatricians' section of this website. *** Please do not send unnamed referrals as they can no longer be processed or triaged in this clinic.
Dr Heidi Webster: Books now closed from 24/04/25 until mid-year as Dr on leave and is not currently able to triage and process new referrals.
Dr Rachel Noovao: Limited availability for children 1 to 10 years of age with sleep, constipation or continence issues, or for the assessment and management of ADHD.
Drs Helen Hall & Samantha Williams: Limited availability for children with developmental/ behavioural issues, or General Paediatric medical issues, under 12 years age.
Please note: Due to a recent influx of referrals which we are unable to triage in a rapid timeframe, unnamed referrals will no longer be triaged through this clinic and will be returned to the referring GP.
APPOINTMENT WAITLIST: For those with bookings later in the year or accepted referral without a booking confirmed as yet, please return your Patient Registration form asap to go on the waitlist to be notified for an earlier appointment if we have a cancellation spot become available.
NEW Appointment booking process: GP referrals are required for all new patient bookings so please arrange GP referrals via Medical Objects or Fax to us: (07) 5357 8759. Bookings will not be made prior to receiving GP referrals, and each Paediatrician will triage their GP referrals and advise if accepted and the schedule of appointments required depending on the referral question. Please see 'For Parents' section of the website for more information.
This practice is not a bulk-billing practice and private fees are charged by each doctor as independent service providers. New patients will be provided an estimate of fees for consultations when booking appointments. Telehealth appointments are charged also at the same rate, per the time your doctor spends providing care and there are medicare rebates available for the different forms of telehealth (different rebates for videoconference appointments vs telephone consults), provided that the medicare item requirements are fulfilled. Please note our appointment cancellation policies and fees charged for late cancellations.
Instructions for families experiencing pharmacy shortages of medications Concerta (Methylphenidate XR) and Ritalin/ Ritalin LA in 2025, as per the current Australian Government TGA (medication authorisations body), please see 'Medical Services' section of this website (under Services).
