• Referral from your GP or other specialist. As Dr Allison is a specialist, you will be entitled to a Medicare rebate on all consultations. Without a referral you will only be able to claim the Medicare rebate you get after seeing a General Practitioner.
  • X-Rays and Pathology. Dr Allison prefers to see the original hard copies (or discs) of X rays rather than just have the report. Please also bring copies of any relevant blood, urine, histology or other pathology. More recently, with the age of the internet, many investigations are available upon presentation for your consultation.
  • Your Medicare, DVA and Health Fund details.
  • Accompanying person. You may like to bring family members or friends to accompany you during your consultation. Dr Allison understands this is comforting for many people and encourages communication with the significant people who will support you during your surgical journey.
