CURRENT NEWS & INFORMATION
COVID Vaccinations
Nunawading Clinic is pleased to advise that we are an approved vaccination provider for COVID-19 vaccines. Having a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine is one way we can protect our community against coronavirus. COVID-19 vaccines help to prevent serious illness and death from COVID-19, and they are free for everyone in Australia. We are happy to help provide COVID-19 immunisation for our local area and wider community. For more information, please visit our COVID-19 Information page.
Please book online or call 9878 9191 for an appointment.

Medicare rebates are available to existing patients who have attended at least one face-to-face service in the past 12 months.
Our usual billing policy will apply for all consultations (at the surgery, telehealth or telephone). We are a mixed billing practice. We have bulk bill consultations available for pensioners, concession card holders and children under 16 years of age. Exceptions to this policy will be advised at the time of booking. Additional fees may apply for procedures, depending on complexity.
Please make sure we have your correct mobile number on file.

GP Registrars
Nunawading Clinic & Vermont Health Care have had a long history of teaching registrars over the years and a number have stayed on after completion as part of our current team. We provide a full spectrum of General Practice work from Home visits, Workforce medicals, Nursing Home visits in addition to our comprehensive in-house General practice services. We have six Accredited Supervisors in our clinics and a few of them are also involved as Fellowship Examiners for the RACGP.
We would love to have a chat and help you explore your options in General Practice. If this has piqued your interest, please feel free to forward your CV or alternatively, contact the clinic to speak with a Supervisor (Dr Christine Lin).
GP’s who have achieved their vocational registration are also welcome to apply for a position as well.
Fracture Diversion Project in Conjunction with Eastern Melbourne PHN
Dr Jerry Hsu is part of a year-long project where fractures which are amenable for GP management are being seen and managed in our Vermont Health Care clinic. He has undergone further training and attachments at Box Hill Hospital to provide this service to patients. This service is open to the community as well and does not need a referral. If you have a suitable fracture and have been referred to the fracture clinic or Emergency Department at Box Hill Hospital or Maroondah Hospital, you may be offered a list of GPs in your area who are participating in this project.
Kidney Stone Diversion Project in Conjunction with Eastern Melbourne PHN
Dr Jerry Hsu at Dr John Chae are actively involved in this project which helps reduce the burden of Eastern Health kidney stone clinics. If you have been instructed by the hospital to see us about your kidney stone, please call our reception to book in your appointment.

WINTER IS HERE
You may have noticed in the media that there was a spike in influenza cases around the September period last year. The RACGP recommends that patients do not get the flu vaccination too early as there is good research to suggest that the vaccine’s effectiveness drops by about 7% – 11% per month once it is given. Having the vaccine nearer towards winter will allow your body to maintain the immunity during the most contagious period. We will have the vaccine available from April to help cover travellers who might be away during the winter months.
Please call our clinic in mid April or early May for flu vaccination bookings.
TRAVEL VACCINES
Please make an appointment 4 – 6 weeks prior to travelling to organise vaccines and travel advice. Appointments must be made with a doctor to determine the appropriate vaccination course for your travel.
Influenza vaccination is strongly recommended for overseas travel.
We are now accredited to provide the Yellow Fever Vaccine. For more information in regards to Yellow Fever and Australian Regulations, please click here.
Nunawading Clinic would like to acknowledge the Traditional Custodian of this land and pay our respects to their Elders – past, present and future. We extend the respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and acknowledge the important role they continue play in our communities.
