General Practice & Family GP Care
in Cannonvale

Coral Coast Doctors offers bulk billed consultations for Medicare-eligible patients where the service is eligible under Medicare. Some services may not be eligible for bulk billing or may attract an out-of-pocket fee.

A standard appointment at Coral Coast Doctors is 10 minutes and is generally suitable for discussing one straightforward health concern. Please book a longer appointment for multiple health concerns; mental health concerns or a Mental Health Treatment Plan; chronic disease management or a complex medical problem; or detailed forms, assessments, procedures or comprehensive health checks. Selecting the appropriate appointment length gives your doctor enough time to provide thorough and safe care. Please speak with reception if you are unsure which appointment type to book.

Yes. Same-day appointments are available when capacity allows. You can check current availability and book online through HotDoc, or call reception on 1300 272 897. Please tell reception if your concern is urgent so the team can help arrange the most appropriate care. Coral Coast Doctors is not an emergency department.

Yes. Telehealth appointments are available for eligible patients who have attended Coral Coast Doctors in person within the previous 12 months. Some health concerns require a physical examination, so your doctor may recommend an in-person appointment. For a child's telehealth consultation, the child must be present with their parent or carer during the appointment.

Please contact reception or book an appointment when you need a new or repeat prescription. Your GP must review whether the medication remains safe and appropriate for you. Some prescriptions require an in-person assessment, recent tests or ongoing monitoring. Please arrange your appointment before your medication runs out, as prescriptions cannot always be issued immediately.

Please arrange a follow-up appointment to discuss pathology, imaging or other investigation results with your doctor. Reception staff may be able to confirm whether a result has arrived, but they cannot interpret the result or provide clinical advice. Your doctor will explain what the result means, whether any treatment is required and when further testing or follow-up should occur. Please ensure your telephone number and contact details are current.

Please contact reception to request access to your medical records or to arrange a transfer to another healthcare provider. We will require written consent and may need to verify your identity before releasing information. Where records relate to a child or another person, appropriate authority or consent must be provided. Reception will explain the processing time, secure transfer arrangements and any applicable administrative fee.

Yes. Our doctors provide healthcare for patients of all ages, from newborns and children through to adults and older people. Please book a separate appointment for each child who needs to be seen. Bring the child's Medicare card and any relevant health, immunisation or hospital records. The child must be present during both in-person and telehealth consultations.
