Most allergy services are privately billed; some visits are bulk billed as shown. Medicare rebates are processed on the spot and paid into your bank account, usually within 1 to 2 business days.
Booking deposit. Allergy consultations need a $100 deposit before we can confirm your appointment. The deposit comes off your fee on the day of your first appointment.
