Patient Fees
The following fees are for my only clinic at Sports Medicine at Sydney University and are effective as of May 1st, 2024.
These fees are very similar to the average Sport & Exercise Medicine fees across Australia (according to Medical Costs Finder website). Medicare rebates for Sport & Exercise medicine are very low compared to other specialist physicians doing long consultations on referral from a GP. My standard consultation length is 45 mins for an initial consultation and 30 minutes for a review consultation. You need a referral from another doctor to access Medicare rebates. Telehealth consultations are available for people outside Sydney or those who develop illness on the day of their appointments. Charges are the same for Telehealth appointments compared to regular appointments but Medicare rebates may be even lower.
