Face to Face GP appointments & Telehealth Appointments
BallyGP values the health and wellbeing of all who attend our practice including our Doctors, Patients, Nurses, Staff and Allied Health Practitioners. Due to the ever-changing safety concerns of COVID-19 we are still unable to make face-to-face appointments for patients who have any symptoms that may be associated with the Coronavirus. If you have any respiratory symptoms, please do not attend our practice. We can still book telehealth appointments for these patients and during the consultation your doctor can decide what to do next for you; these telehealth appointments can be booked with our reception staff or online.
Our reception staff are required to ask before they book you in, if you have any symptoms such as sore throat, runny nose, cough, fever, shortness of breath, loss of taste or smell, if you are unsure, call first on 02 4285 2630.
If the doctor decides to send you for a COVID test – we will organise to send the request forms direct to your preferred lab either Southern Pathology or Laverty Pathology. (You may need to call them to make an appointment). DO NOT come into the practice to collect any forms.
