Guest annerichard Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hi All, My family and I have just moved to WA (Tapping) from the UK. Can Anyone tell me how and where the to find out where the nearest G.P surgery is so I can register the family. Do I have to still do this here? Thanks Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Its a bit different in Aus (at least from how I understand it where we will be living). I'm sure once more on the Aus side wake up they will be along to help out with a reply or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARYROSE02 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 It's not like in the UK where you have to register with one particular practice. Here, you can go to any one you like, and as many as you like, but of course it makes sense to find one practice you like and go to that one. Some people will use their regular surgery but then go to a 7-day one if they want to see a GP out of hours or at weekends. Or perhaps your favourite doctor is not available or you want to see a man/woman and there's no one there that day. Find a practice that 'bulk-bills' and you won't have to pay anything.
