Due to changes in Medicare rules, we no longer accept indefinite referrals.
We are also no longer able to accept referrals for patients who do not carry private health insurance with hospital cover. If you have lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia and wish to be assessed for a clinical trial, but do not live within the catchment of Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, ask your GP to make to referral specifically to Prof Cheah through the WA Health Central Referral Service.
Please bring your current referral with you when you attend for your consultation as well as a list of current medications and allergies, and any other information that may be useful for your consultation.
Payments
We operate a cashless practice, so require payment by credit card or EFTPOS only and request payment in full on the day of the consultation.
We can process the lodgement of the Medicare and Private Health Insurance rebate for you on the day.
Please check with your fund for any out-of-pocket expenses.
