Cancellation Policy

Please do NOT register unless you intend to come, as we want spaces available for those who need it. Due to the nature of drop-in clinics, wait times are typically required. We endeavour to run this clinic efficiently to see everyone in a timely manner, however, we apologise for any extended wait times. You are welcome to attend as many weekly Drop-In Clinics as you wish. Telehealth and phone call follow-up is included at a bulk-billed fee after these appointments. You are welcome to reach out to Midwife Allie via text, email or call if you would like to arrange this. Phone calls are only accepted within business hours (0900-1700). You are still advised to have a routine appointment with your GP for you and your newborn between 5-10 days and 6 weeks postpartum. A midwife appointment does not replace this. This service does not replace your routine healthcare provider. 〰️If you would like Midwife Allie to become your primary postnatal care midwife, Postnatal Care Packages are available.
