Appointments
Please note: Our clinics are very busy and we get several patient referrals daily, many of which are urgent. While we try to fit in appointments in a timely manner, often waiting period for non-urgent appointments may be a few months. For emergencies, please contact the Royal Children's Hospital or the Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital emergency departments.
