Wirreanda on Wheatsheaf Surgery is a private billing practice which requires payment in full at the time of consultation. At the discretion of the treating doctor, concession card holders may be bulk billed. Payments can be made by cash, cheque, credit card or EFTPOS. We are linked to Medicare with Tyro and your refund can be transferred back into your account immediately.
Consultation costs vary depending on the length of time spent with the doctor, the complexity of your condition and any additional services required (procedures, vaccinations, excisions, dressings etc). A summary of our fees can be obtained by asking at reception.
