Surgery hours and after hours care arrangements
We operate a 15 minute appointment system.
Please tell our receptionist, Gail, if you are likely to require a longer appointment.
Surgery Hours:
Monday to Friday 8.45am to 6.00pm

We believe continuity of care and easy availability is very important for good communication and safe medical practice.

OR
After hours attend Balmain GP Casualty at Booth Street Balmain (open until 10pm).

For telephone advice after hours call the GP Helpline
1800 022 222
When a person calls the helpline, their call is answered by a registered nurse who triages the caller. If the nurse determines that the patient would benefit from speaking to a GP, the patient is then transferred to a helpline GP. The GP talks with the person, assesses their condition, and provides medical advice.
The after hours GP helpline is not intended for people with life-threatening conditions.
People with such conditions should dial ‘000’ and/or attend an emergency department without delay.
