All the Doctors and staff at Beerwah Family Clinic are committed to providing you with a high standard of patient care. However, we acknowledge that our patients have certain rights and we aim to support these rights as much as we can.

Beerwah Family Clinic highly motivates patients to follow up for their results, It is the policy of Beerwah Family Clinic to have all patients return for a consultation for their results, as we believe this enables the disclosure of essential information and enables the doctor to provide an explanation and discuss any further treatment plan. Beerwah Family Clinic doesn’t allow results to be given over the phone.

Electronic requests are handled by the Practice Manager for follow up with the GPs. Electronic requests can be sent via the form below – patients are advised that this facility is for incoming enquiries only as their confidentiality may be compromised. This also applies to information by fax unless we are assured that the information will be sent directly to a secure fax.

Patients are able to obtain advice or information related to their care by electronic means where the GP determines that a face-to-face consultation is unnecessary.

Beerwah Family Clinic offers Bulk Billing to eligible Patients under 16 and Concession Card holders, however, some services such as Commercial Driver’s Licence, Pre-Employment Medicals, Uber Driver’s Licence, Drug and Alcohol Testing, Cosmetic Procedures and some surgical procedures will attract a fee.

For further queries please speak to our Practice Manager or Senior Receptionist.

Calls from patients are not transferred to the Doctors at Beerwah Family Clinic due to privacy. Staff will take your details and pass a message to your Doctor; the staff will only interrupt a consultation if the matter is urgent.
