Urgent walk-in clinic
We offer an urgent walk-in clinic Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 10:00am.
As spaces are limited, we recommend arriving as close to 8:30am as possible.
What is the walk-in clinic for?
Our walk-in clinic is designed for urgent health concerns that require same-day assessment. If your concern is not urgent, you may be asked to book a routine appointment for another day.
Services not available through the walk-in clinic

Routine repeat prescriptions
If you require an urgent repeat prescription, please phone us on 07 242 9299.
What to expect
You will initially be triaged by one of our experienced nurses. In some cases, the nurse may be able to manage your concern without the need for you to see a GP, Nurse Practitioner, or our Extended Care Paramedic.
Our clinical team will focus on addressing your urgent health concern for that day. If you have additional long-term or non-urgent health issues, you may be asked to book a separate routine appointment to discuss these.
Please note that you will not be able to choose which clinician you see, as our team works on a roster that changes from day to day.
