How to book a Melton Medical Clinic appointment

The practice accepts consultation bookings by phone and through its online booking system. The clinic says its online appointments use HotDoc and that patients can book through the HotDoc website or mobile app.

  1. Check eligibility first. If you are a new patient, or you have not attended the clinic during the previous five years, confirm whether the practice is accepting you before trying to book.
  2. Choose your booking method. Call (03) 9743 5600 or use the clinic’s HotDoc booking option.
  3. Select enough appointment time. Standard consultations are normally 10 minutes. Tell reception if you need a longer appointment or select a longer option online where available.
  4. Arrive 5–10 minutes early. The clinic asks patients to allow time for front-desk processing.
  5. For urgent problems, explain the urgency. The practice says urgent cases are triaged by its practice nurse and may be allocated to the first suitable available doctor rather than the patient’s preferred doctor.

What services does Melton Medical Clinic provide?

The practice states that its consultations cover virtually all aspects of general practice. Services listed by the clinic include:

General & family medicineRoutine GP care, family healthcare, paediatrics and preventative health.
Women’s & reproductive healthFamily planning, fertility treatment, hormonal implants and shared obstetric care.

Melton Medical Clinic fees in 2026

The clinic publishes a mixed-billing policy. Its consultation page lists the following standard consultation fees as current from July 2026:

Patient categoryMonday–FridaySaturday
Non-concession card holder$97 full fee / $52 gap$102 full fee / $57 gap
Pension or Health Care Card holder$92 full fee / $47 gap$97 full fee / $52 gap

The clinic also states that requested return visits by the doctor for review or follow-up of test results are bulk-billed, while weekend fees are higher. Fees can change, so confirm the applicable charge when booking.

Missed appointment: The clinic states that a $48 fee applies when an appointment is not cancelled before the appointment time. If you cannot attend, contact reception as early as possible.

New patients: what to know before booking

This is one of the most important points on the clinic’s current consultation information. From 1 January 2024, the practice says it will not accept new patients or appointments for current patients who have not attended within the last five years until it reopens its books.

Because appointment policies can change, do not assume that an old directory listing means a new-patient appointment is available. Contact the clinic directly if you are unsure of your eligibility.

Telehealth and telephone contact

The practice provides telephone contact with doctors for important medical issues after 11:00 am during normal surgery hours. If the doctor is consulting with another patient, reception can take a message and advise when the doctor is likely to return the call.

If you specifically need a remote consultation, ask reception about the currently available consultation format when booking rather than assuming every appointment type is offered by video or telephone.

Home visits

Home visits are generally available at the doctor’s discretion for regular patients who are disabled or too unwell to travel to the clinic. The practice asks patients to arrange these, where possible, before 10:30 am. Home visits generally incur a full fee.

After-hours medical care in Melton

Melton Medical Clinic is closed on Sundays and public holidays. Its practice information directs patients to the National Home Doctor Service for after-hours visits at 13-SICK (13 7425).

For a medical emergency or potentially life-threatening symptoms, call 000 rather than waiting for a routine GP appointment.

The clinic is located at 95 Unitt Street, Melton VIC 3337, in central Melton. The practice describes its location as being close to local services and says the building has a main patient entrance plus a combined disabled/ambulance entry with ramp access.

Before you attend: useful patient checklist

  • Confirm that the practice is currently accepting your patient category.
  • Check the appointment date, time and doctor.
  • Arrive 5–10 minutes early for registration and front-desk processing.
  • Book a longer consultation if you have multiple issues to discuss.
  • Tell reception about urgent symptoms so the practice can triage appropriately.
  • Ask about the expected fee when the appointment type is not standard.
  • Cancel as early as possible if you cannot attend to avoid the missed-appointment fee.
  • Do not email personal medical information or test results to the practice’s general email address; the clinic specifically directs patients to phone reception for appointments and personal medical matters.
