Surgical Fees
After your initial consultation you will be provided with a surgical estimate. Your surgical estimate will include A/Prof Vasica's fees only, you will be billed separately by the Anesthetist and/or Surgical Assistant (if required) after your surgery. If you would like to get an indication of their fees we can provide you with their contact numbers.
You are required to pay your surgical estimate in full five days prior to your surgery. In the rare instance fees may alter post surgery, in this case we will invoice you the difference after your procedure.
Once you have had your procedure, we will process your Medicare claim online in which you will receive a refund direct from Medicare (usually within 48hrs). We will send you your final receipts for you to claim through your private health fund (if that applies to you).
