​

Please note cancellation fee:

If you are not able to attend your appointment, we require at least 2 hours notice to cancel so we can then offer the appointment to others. 

As of May 2021 Trinity Medical Centre reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee/non-attendance fee of $50 if you do not call us 2 hours prior to the appointment time.

This fee will apply to all patients 18 years and over. If your appointment is with our nurse we require 24 hours notice for cancellation as these appointments are longer and more difficult to fill. 

​

DR FARZANS PATIENTS:

​

Please be aware, if you make an appointment with Dr. Farzan, waiting times can be longer.

Please be aware: Dr Farzan charges an after hours fee in the evenings to ALL PATIENTS.

​

Patient Feedback:

​

We are currently seeking patient feedback, We are constantly looking for constructive feedback and ways to improve our service.

​

RESPONSE TO RECENT FEEDBACK:

We have noticed from feedback that patients are finding it harder to get same day appointments with a GP when needed. We have worked hard to get 2 new doctors working in our clinic, Dr Niran Nitchingham and Dr Anjani Prasad, this will hopefully mean making appointments should get easier with more GPs available to service our patients.

Thank you for your patience with this, this has been a long process and we are excited to be able to offer our patients on the day or next day appointments with some of the GPs that use our rooms on most occasions.
