Our regular clients with a substantial illness or mobility problems can arrange a Home Visit during practice hours. This is subject to the discretion of the patient’s doctor.
Tobwabba works in cooperation with the National and State based recall and reminder registers. We may occasionally send our patients a reminder notice, offering preventative health services appropriate to their individual care. If this is something you do not want to receive, please tell reception or your doctor.
Our practice only offers consultation by appointment. If you have a number of issues to discuss, please let reception know so that they can book a longer appointment for you. We encourage our clients to request their preferred doctor when making an appointment. Urgent appointments will be seen by the first available doctor.
