Bulk Billing
We offer Medicare Bulk Billing Service to our patients who hold a current Medicare Card. However, some of our Special Procedures do require a Private Fee which is not covered by Medicare. Before any procedure is performed, a doctor will discuss the fee with you where applicable.
Non Medicare Holder
For patients who do not hold a Medicare Card, we endeavour to keep our fees as low as possible. Payment is expected at the time of consultation and can be made by cash, EFTPOS, MasterCard/Visa. Please speak with the Receptionist for the current fee structure.

Moggill Medical Centre runs an appointment system. You can make an appointment by contacting the practice by phone on or booking Online. We also offer Walk-in appointments.

Please inform Reception when booking if you may require a Long Appointment. If you have any forms which need to be completed, please also advise reception as this may require a Private Fee.
Each appointment is for one person. If you have other family members who require medical attention, please make a separate booking for them, or book a double appointment.
Moggill Medical Centre aim to adhere to appointment schedules however, the unpredictable nature of a Medical Practice means that Doctors sometimes run behind time. This is mostly due to a patient requiring urgent medical attention. We sincerely regret any inconvenience caused to patients when we fall behind with our appointment schedule.
We would appreciate it if you no longer need your appointment to please call and cancel so another patient can book the appointment.
Telephone
To maintain confidentiality, we avoid telephone interruptions to doctors, the nurse may be able to assist you to wish to speak to your doctor, a message will be taken, and your call returned as soon as possible. Urgent enquiries will be put through to the Doctor. Please be aware that consultations will not be conducted over the phone.
