As a Specialist clinic, patients need referral from their General
Practitioner, family
physician or other doctor to be eligible for
a rebate from Medicare.
Dr. Brooks generally runs on time so please arrive 5-10 minutes
early for your
appointment to fill in a health questionnaire and
supply your personal details. If you are late it may not be possible
for you to be seen that day in order to avoid inconveniencing other
patients.
When you come for your appointment Remember
to get the following:
Medicare or the veteran affairs card.
Referral letter from your GP, family physician or other doctor.
Have your insurance information.
Copies of operation records, medical records, x-rays, MRIs, CT scans
and so on from
prior doctor visits.
If you have seen a physiotherapist, please bring a progress letter
from the therapist.
If you have had surgery elsewhere, please bring a copy of your operation
report.
You may also arrange to have the records sent to us prior to your
appointment.
Very often during the course of your evaluation or treatment for
an orthopaedic
condition your doctor will require x-rays to determine
the cause of a problem or to
evaluate your progress. If not all
the relevant information is available at the time of
your appointment
this may cause a delay in your treatment. In addition it may be
necessary to repeat a study to complete your evaluation.
Please dress so that the body part you are having trouble with
can be easily
examined and/or X-rayed. For example, please wear
shorts if you are attending for a
knee problem.
To cancel an appointment:
Telephone the office during business hours. Please cancel at least
1 day ahead so that your appointment time can be allocated to another
patient who is seeking treatment.
Your time is valuable and we make every effort to run on time.
As you can imagine, emergencies occur that cause scheduling delays
beyond our control. We apologise in advance if we keep you waiting.
