Our Fees are Changing 1/1/2023

To continue to provide the best care for our patients, we have had to make the tough decision to move to mixed billing from January 2023.

We will continue to bulk bill appointments for children under the age of 16, DVA card holders and those with a current Centrelink concession card.

For all other patients there will be an out of pocket cost of around $30 (see signage in the waiting room for more information)

Fees will also apply for all procedures such as iron infusion, IUD / Mirena insertion and removal, Implanon insertion and removal, ear syringing, wound care and dressings, biopsy or excisions and so on.

We thank you for your understanding.

We have moved to our new place at 70 Attfield Street Maddington

Granada Medical Practice was established by Dr Arosha Vidyabhushana and Dr Fatin Wajdi on the 16th of January 2012, beginning as a small practice on Burslem Drive, Maddington. At that point in time, Dr Arosha and Dr Fatin had been working together in the Maddington area since 2008, and welcomed their ever-growing patient base on the new and exciting chapter of their careers. Today, the practice is open seven days a week and only being closed during public holidays.

Granada Medical Practice is accredited with Australian General Practice Accreditation Limited(AGPAL) according to the Royal College approved standards of general Practice in Australia and committed to provide the best possible care for its patients.

During the last five years, the practice has evolved and flourished rapidly, the most significant change being moving to the new premises, 70 Attfield Street in May 2016. The new practice brought in an influx of new patients with it’s onsite pathology service and various allied health services such as Physiotherapy, Podiatry, Dietetics and Psychology.

The doctors of Granada Medical Practice are highly qualified, with over 50 years of GP experience collectively. Their skill and quality is evident in the wide ranges of services they provide, all catering to the whole family’s needs. The practice services are mostly bulk billed to Medicare card holders, and patients will be informed of any additional charges prior to attending the consultations.

“We are blessed with very efficient and friendly staff .I believes the success so far with all aspects is largely due to the commitment of our practice manager, nurses and the reception staff. Also we are very proud to have extremely experienced and commited doctors who are well respected and loved by the patients of the area”

Practice Principal GP Dr Arosha Vidyabhushana

Patient feedback plays a vital role in maintaining the high standard of healthcare that Granada Medical Practice sets for itself, and so patients are always welcome to provide their feedback on the services they receive from both admin staff and the medical staff through the feedback questionnaire available at the front desk. In Dr Arosha’s words, “it is the best way to improve the services and share the satisfaction of the good services we provide with all our staff!”.
