sualg Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Hi. Im due to move to Sydney on a 189 visa this October, I'm currently undergoing tests for abdominal pains with a urologist in the U.K., most of the bad stuff has been ruled out but if I still have to have further tests how will it work in Sydney. I'm planning on asking my consultant to write a letter confirming the tests I have undertaken. How will I acquire the services of a urologist when I land?

LKC Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 You'll need a Medicare card first. When you get here, go into Medicare with your passport and proof of your visa and they'll sort that out for you. The card will take a week or so to arrive, but from memory you'll get a slip of paper with the number on. If you want to pay privately for your urologist, I think you can just look them up and make an appointment directly. If you want to go through Medicare, I think you'll need to see a GP for referral. You can go to whichever GP you like, just register with a practice and make an appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
