    Thank you for your question. There is a cost for initial consultation which is partly rebatable through Medicare. While you do not need to have private insurance to see me, having such an insurance does increase your options in terms of having the procedure earlier rather than through public system, selecting a date for procedure, etc.

    If you still have questions, please call us and we can answer specific queries and guide you further.

    The advice provided here is generic and does not take your particular circumstances into account. Please seek independent advice for your situation.
