Gastroenterology & Liver Privately Referred Non-Inpatient (PRINIP) Clinic

To see one of our specialists, your GP can make a referral following the steps on this referral pathway page.

We will make every effort to see you at your scheduled appointment time. However, there may be occasions when you need to wait such as when a consultation requires more time than originally allocated or we need to attend to emergency cases. We appreciate your patience and understanding in such situations.

After your referral has been reviewed by the specialist, you will be notified if an appointment is available within three months. If no appointments are available within that timeframe, you will be placed on a waiting list and contacted as soon as a slot opens. If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please reach out to your GP who made the referral.

On the day of your appointment, we kindly ask that you:

  • Bring your Medicare card. You will be asked to confirm your details including your primary care and referring doctor so that we can correspond with them after the consultation.
  • Confirm your best email address and phone number to facilitate communication with you between appointments
  • Bring any relevant scans and copies of recent blood tests. Advise the reception staff if you have just had blood tests or scans outside the hospital so that the results can be retrieved.
