Arranging a consultation
On booking your consultation, we will ask you to gather the necessary information to bring to your appointment. These consist of;• GP or Specialists referral• Imaging such as x-rays, CT, ultrasound or MRI - both the reports and the films • relevant information in relation to your visit.
We will request a Patient Information Form be completed. To complete the form you will require information such as your Medicare and private health fund details, a list of medications including herbal supplements and allergies.
For Worker’s Compensation or CTP Claims, you must bring an approval letter for your consultation from the insurance company.
This range of information assists Dr Kinzel in making her recommendations for your treatment, tailoring this to your specific needs pending on such things as your general health, previous injuries and/or surgeries, occupation, day to day activities and available assistance for aftercare if required.
It is a good idea to make a list specific questions you may have and to attend consultation with a family member or friend as support and to help note the information Dr Kinzel discusses.
After your consultation we will assist you in making any arrangements for further appointments, tests or surgery.
