Fees

This document outlines the fees that will apply to your gynaecological care within these rooms. 

The total cost will vary depending on the number of procedures during each visit. There are fees for your first visit, subsequent visits and results review in our rooms. 

 These fees are a reflection of the professional services provided to you by Dr Dimple  D’Costa. 

Initial Consultation At your initial consultation, please bring any relevant test results and ultrasound reports as well as the referral from your GP. If you do not have a current referral, you will not be able to claim a rebate for your consultation from Medicare. 

 No rebate from your Private Health Fund is applicable for visits in the doctor’s surgery; however, the Medicare Safety Net will result in you receiving a partial refund of gap charges in addition to the standard Medicare rebate once you have reached your threshold in a calendar year.
