Results

Patients need to book a consultation to discuss results with the doctor to ensure quality care. Results can now be given over the phone, this will require an appointment. If your doctor needs to discuss a specific result with you; you will be informed by text to make an appointment.

Reminder System

Our practice is committed to preventative care. We will issue you with a reminder text offering you preventative health services appropriate to your care. With the Hotdoc reminder system you will be asked to click through the text to a link and follow the directions. To protect your privacy, you will need to verify with your name and date of birth. If you do not wish to be part of this system, please let us know.

Communicating with your Practitioner

Messages can be left with reception staff in person, phone or email. Your message will be conveyed to the Doctor. Your doctor or the NCMC team will respond to your request as soon as possible. It is advised that is best to book an appointment, as the doctor can then have allocated time to look into your request.
