Welcome Babies!

If you're a sole trader or work for yourself, injury can impact you life in many ways. Waiting for a particular surgery can hinder your chances of quickly getting back to work. If you don't have Private Health Insurance, you may be like many other patients, and choose to self-pay for the treatment you need.
