Subsidised patients will receive team-based care led by an assigned specialist. Non-subsidised patients will receive team-based care led by their choice of specialist. Please be assured that patients receive the same quality of care regardless of their subsidy status.

How long will my visit take?

The time for your visit may take an hour or up to three hours. This is because patients ahead of you may have complex conditions and/or if doctors are called to attend to emergencies in the operating theatres or wards.
