Not everyone requires a referral. Contact me first and we can see if one will be helpful or necessary.
If you have any important history or current health conditions, a referral can be very helpful. They can help me to understand what's going on for you and assist me to provide a holistic service. Referrals also assist in continuity of care between healthcare providers.
If you are seeking a Medicare rebate and you qualify for relevant funding (as determined by your GP), you will require the associated formal referral.
If your are a Participant in the NDIS, please bring a referral including a list of other service providers.
With your permission, to ensure clear and consistent communication with your healthcare team, I will liaise with your other healthcare providers and copy them in on letters to your GP.
I will send an initial letter to your referrer on commencement of therapy. I will also maintain contact with an update letter after 6-8 weeks of therapy or as needed.
