We see many patients and respect some people come to us just for STI testing while seeing their regular GP for other medical matters. Stonewall offers a safe space that values the privacy and choice of all who attend. Some patients who attend FAST, don’t want the visit put through Medicare. We respect your choice! On a Thursday night, we will instead ask you to pay for the consult instead and you can use cash or card. We will provide you a receipt in case you change your mind and decide to claim the Medicare refund at a later time.
Due to an ever increasing demand for our FAST clinic, appointments are required. You can book via our website www.stonewall.com.au or on the HotDoc, search for FAST STI.
