STEPS TO PREVENT SPREAD OF COVID-19

Thank you to all our patients who have attended our practice since the Covid-19 pandemic began. Your understanding and co-operation with the new procedures we have in place to protect us and ensure we comply with government guidelines is very much appreciated.

For your safety and that of our staff, we introduced measures such as reduced seating in our waiting room, distancing markings on the floor, protective screens, increased signage on our doors and walls and staff using protective clothing and equipment.

If you have symptoms of fever, chills/sweats, cough, runny nose, sore throat, shortness of breath, muscle soreness, loss of sense of smell and taste, we advise you contact your GP or local Coronavirus hotline on 1800 675 398.

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND OUR PRACTICE if you have any of the symptoms above or have recently tested Covid-19 positive or are awaiting a Covid-19 test result or have been in contact with someone who has. Also, please be aware of the latest Covid public exposure sites listed on the NSW website and advise us if you have attended any of the listed sites. Please call our team on (02) 9747-4133 to advise.

We offer telehealth consulting so you can remain in direct contact with your cardiologist when you cannot attend. Other measures we are taking include:
* Increased cleaning regimes throughout the day
* Cashless payments only
* Asking you to attend alone (where appropriate) to reduce numbers in the practice
