ABOUT APPOINTMENTS
Northern Beaches GP Superclinic offers an appointment system for GPs practicing from the facility. You can make an appointment with your doctor or health professional by telephone or internet via this website. Walk-in consultations may also be possible on the day.
Urgent medical problems will always be dealt with promptly.
Appointments vary with each GP practice but are usually made at 15 minute intervals. When making your appointment, please advise staff if it is of an urgent nature or if you require extra time.
Tip: Monday is the busiest day for appointments so walk-in wait times to see your GP are sometimes longer than other days.

It would also be appreciated if you can arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment so forms can be completed.
