Dear DMC patients & community.

From the 1st of November, you may have seen media coverage and social media posts about GPs “returning to bulk billing”.

We would like to be upfront and honest and let you know why there will not be any changes to the current billing policies of each individual GP at DMC Medical Centre.

At DMC Medical Centre, all of the doctors are independent practitioners (other than registrars), who have their own individual billing policies. Any that were private billing prior to the 1st of November have elected to remain this way. They have individually made this decision so that they can continue to:
- Have a longer consult – generally 15 minutes or more – so that they can listen to you and explain things to you
- Continue to provide comprehensive and continuous care by GPs that know and care about you
- Provide safe and comprehensive medicine — not rushed care
- DMC itself can remain locally owned by two of our long term GPs, employing locals who mostly live in the area and share our passion for caring for our community
- Provide quality equipment, consumables, timely servicing and maintenance, to ensure confidence and safe usage

Please note that our registrar GPs at DMC will continue to privately bill as well.

We understand that there are cost of living pressures and we are conscious about ensuring general practice care is affordable but also at a rate that allows us to be remunerated appropriately and for the practice (via service fees) to be able to pay for our staff at a fair rate, ensuring sufficient and well trained staffing so as to be able to best assist you when needed.

The current Medicare fee (including rebate) does not cover the true cost of providing quality medical care for all. We would strongly encourage you to talk to your local federal member if you find that the Medicare rebate does not meet your needs. Please note that the local federal member for Reid is Miss Sally Sitou MP Ph (02) 9715 7444.

Thank you for valuing the difference that time, care and experienced GPs make.

We greatly appreciate you support and kindness towards all of our staff and the doctors at this time. ❤️

Dedicated to providing our patients with the highest level of service and care in our friendly environment. We are open 7 days.

It’s Jersey Day! We were a bit slow to take this photo, but if you popped into DMC today you would’ve noticed many of our team, and our extended team John over at 247 Espresso, all decked out in our favourite team jerseys. We’re wearing them in honor of Jersey Day - trying to raise awareness of the importance of organ donation. For more information and to start the conversation go to https://www.jerseyday.com.au DonateLife

Next year we will do this again and look forward to seeing as many people in our local community joining in & proudly wearing their jersey to support this very important cause ❤️

A warm welcome to our newest GP - Dr Sophie Armbrister, who commenced practice at DMC today.

Here's a little about Sophie...

Dr Sophie Armbrister is a mixed billing GP Registrar who completed her medical degree with distinction at Griffith University, following a Medical Science degree at Sydney University. She has worked in both metropolitan and regional hospitals across Australia, with broad experience in paediatrics, emergency medicine, and obstetrics & gynaecology.

Sophie is passionate about continuity of care and building long-term relationships with her patients. Her warm, bubbly nature helps create a safe, welcoming space where patients feel truly heard and supported. She values holistic, patient-centred care and aims to make every consultation informative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual—where no question is too small and no concern is overlooked.

Outside the clinic, Sophie loves travelling, music, board game nights, and getting outdoors—whether it’s hiking, playing tennis, or chasing thrills at a theme park. Her background in drama and teaching fuels her creativity and helps her connect with people from all walks of life.

Sophie will be working Monday through to Thursday and some Saturdays, and is available by appointment.

Welcome to our team Sophie! ❤️

Edit: We have now completed our server changeover and everything is back up and running smoothly. To all our patients that were in contact with us over the last few days via appointments or over the phone, thankyou for your patience and for bearing with us during the transition! We are all very grateful to our wonderful IT guru, and happy to be on the other side of the change over now!

Original post:
We will be completing a long awaited and much needed server changeover this weekend, and will be taking some of our services offline just until Monday.

All online appointment booking services will not be available from 5pm today until midday Monday, as well as online script and referral requests. This includes both through our website and HotDoc.

We will also be closing at 1pm tomorrow (Saturday 26th July) but opening as usual on Sunday and Monday.

All other services will be working as usual, and appointments during this time can be made over the phone by calling our friendly receptionists on 02 9819 6666. We apologise if it takes a little longer to get through over the phone including on Monday morning, but we will have all hands on deck as much as possible to minimise any time spent on hold waiting to get through to us.

Thanks so much in advance for your support and patience, and we look forward to enjoying a much more speedy computer system once its fully up and running again next week! 😊
