In order to make an appointment, you will require a referral from your General Practitioner.

Appointments

Once you have a referring letter from your doctor, you can make an appointment with a specific Mornington Orthopaedics surgeon.

This can be done by phoning the surgeon’s rooms directly. We ask all new patients who have booked an appointment to complete a New Patient Form and submit online or print and bring this with you to your first appointment.[/slogan]
