We request that bookings be made online via our Hotdoc<\/a> account. If you don’t have a Hotdoc account, you’ll be prompted to create one before confirming an appointment.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can phone (03) 4010 9609 for an appointment if you don’t have access to the internet to make an online booking. Every effort will be made to accommodate your preferred time.<\/p>\n

As Balranald Medical Centre and Dr Vitalis is new to the area, all first-time bookings will require completing a new patient registration form. Please allow enough time before your appointment to complete. You can fill in this form online or in person at our clinic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
