Unfortunately we will be Chris free tomorrow (and Hannah can't cover), so it will just be the online booking system.

Sorry for the inconvience.

Chris has called in sick this morning. Please use the online booking system https://drjimsharplesclinic.com.au

Sorry folks.

Chris is away on holidays and I do have the lovely Hannah covering the phones, but she is back in NZ as of this morning and coverage may be spotty depending on the Internet. Please use the online booking system if you are having trouble getting through.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dr Sharples will not be in the clinic on Friday 15th of August. Christine will still be around to answer the phones, but Dr Sharples will be away on a course.

Apologies

Apologies

Apologies in advance for the phone issues this morning. Christine's flight back from Bali was cancelled and then the follow on flight was delayed, so she won't be back on the phone till about 10am ish.

These things can't be helped.

Christine has been away again today and it seems likely she might be gone for the rest of the week. There is no one else to answer the phone so please use the online booking system at https://drjimsharplesclinic.com.au.

Please DO NOT try to use facebook comments as we do not check them.

If you did an online booking and you do not receive a booking confirmation message, then for some reason it didn't go through. All bookings are reviewed manually and confirmed, it is not an automated system, but actually a person double checking the bookings.

So there has been a bunch of people not being available for their Telehealth appointments.

If you booked the appointment, it is your responsibility to be available, with your phone nearby with good signal, up to half an hour before and after the appointment time.

If you are on another call, assuming it is not an actual emergency, please tell them that you will ring them back, and answer the clinic call.

It is not our job to chase you down for not answering the phone for your own appointment that you booked!

In fact, from now on, missing Telehealth appointments will be treated the same way as missed in-person appointments, and warning letters will go out.

Two warnings is "game over" and you will be asked to find a new clinic.

Hope everyone had a lovely break for Australia Day (and didn't melt with that heat yesterday!).

Unfortunately Christine is away from lunchtime today, so please use the online booking system.

Apologies.
