    If the results are normal, you will not be notified. If they are not normal, the clinic will phone you and discuss next steps.

Or, if after two or three days, you are concerned about your results, you can call the clinic to find out.

    Also, on our clinics pages, you can see who is on duty each day. That means if it is a walk-in clinic you may be able to see your doctor of choice, but we cannot guarantee it. They may be seeing other patients when it is your turn to have a consultation.

  • Some clinics have ample parking, while others not so much. Please visit your nearest clinic’s page to find out more. We’ll also let you know if a clinic is close to public transport.

  • Most people in this country have to wait to see their doctor! That’s because people have different health needs and how long it takes to get the right help can be very unpredictable.

    Urgent care is walk-in only. The most seriously ill people are seen first. The really good news is that you can now see on the clinic website pages what the expected wait time is at that clinic! That means you can find another clinic near to you with a shorter wait time, if need be.

If you are enrolled with ManageMyHealth, your immunisation records will also appear in there.
