Our surgical team has turned P I N K for a cause close to our hearts! 🩷🎀

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’re wearing pink to raise awareness, spark important conversations and show our support for those affected by breast cancer.

Beyond our colourful scrubs, our commitment remains the same — providing exceptional surgical care with compassion, kindness and understanding to every patient navigating breast cancer surgery and treatment.

A little splash of pink, a powerful message of support🩷

A fee update for our patients 🩺🏥

From 1 October 2026, our appointment fees will increase. This change reflects the ongoing rise in the costs of running our practice and delivering our high standard of compassionate care to our community.

We know household budgets are stretched for many people right now, and we haven’t made this decision lightly.

New appointment fees from 1st October 2026.
- New Surgical Consult $280
- New Bariatric Consult $280
- New Initial Cancer Consult $350
- New Pelvic Floor Consult $350
- Review consultation $100
- There is no fee charged for our bariatric review patients and immediate post operative patients.

If you’re unsure which fee applies to your appointment, please send us an email or call us on 4922 8426. Our team is happy to help you understand the cost in advance.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
