Vineyard Medical Centre
What makes Vineyard Medical Centre a stand out from the rest & why is quality care so important to us? Dr Horvat explains here
Commencing 1st October 2024, a secure held prepayment will be required to conduct a Telehealth consultation. If payment details are not added via the secure HotDoc link within 90 minutes, your appointment will automatically cancel. Payment will finalise after your consultation. If you do not wish to pre-pay, a face to face appointment is required.
Our Services:
Vineyard Medical Centre is a private billing clinic, providing quality patient centered care. Our Doctors pride themselves in spending time with their patients listening to their needs and providing assistance and advice.
After hours care is provided by National Home Doctor Service. Please ring
9216 5600 to be connected directly to the Locum Service. Alternatively call directly on 13 74 25
Medical Assistance when the clinic is closed
For your convenience we are now sending appointment reminders, health reminders & health results via SMS with HotDoc.
Health reminders and results are sent securely to your phone. When you receive the SMS click the link, verify your identity and place your booking. Its as easy as that and ensures a quick & secure delivery of your health information.
BetterConsult is here
We're excited to announce that the doctors at our practice now use BetterConsult to help you get the most out of your appointment.
BetterConsult is a "smart" pre-consultation questionnaire that asks the questions your doctor usually asks about the reason for your visit. It then prepares a summary for your doctor.
What does this mean for you?
By knowing this information at the start of your appointment, your doctor can spend more of your time focussed on addressing your healthcare needs.
Filling out BetterConsult prior to your appointment also helps you think through what you would like to address with your doctor.
How does it work?
You will receive an SMS from our practice the day before your appointment (or immediately if your appointment is within 24 hours of booking) with a link to your pre-consultation questionnaire.
When you receive the SMS, simply
-
Click the secure link in the SMS
-
Register or login to your free BetterConsult account
-
Complete the BetterConsult questionnaire
BetterConsult protects your medical information
With BetterConsult your medical information is private, confidential and totally secure, to meet and exceed Australian data privacy legislation.

Beat the Summer heat
☀️ Beat the Summer Heat with These Cool Tips! 🧊
Summer is here, and while we love the sunshine, staying cool and safe is a must. Whether you're relaxing at home, working, or out enjoying the season, here are some simple ways to keep the heat at bay:
💧 Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!
Drink plenty of water throughout the day—even if you’re not thirsty. Add a slice of lemon or some fresh mint for a refreshing twist!
🧢 Dress to Stay Cool
Choose lightweight, loose-fitting clothing in light colors. Don’t forget your hat and sunglasses if you’re stepping outdoors.
🌬️ Find Your Cool Zone
Stay indoors during the hottest part of the day (usually 11 AM–3 PM) and use fans or air conditioning to keep your home comfortable.
🥗 Eat Light & Refreshing Meals
Summer is perfect for enjoying fresh fruits, salads, and chilled treats like yogurt or smoothies. Avoid heavy, hot meals that can make you feel sluggish.
🌴 Cool Activities
Take a dip in the pool, visit air-conditioned spaces like libraries or malls, or enjoy a shady park for some outdoor fun without overheating.
🧴 Protect Your Skin
Don’t forget sunscreen! Choose SPF 30 or higher and reapply every 2 hours to shield your skin from harmful UV rays.
⚠️ Know the Signs of Heat Stress
Feeling dizzy, nauseous, or weak? Cool down immediately, sip water, and seek help if symptoms persist.
Stay safe, stay cool, and soak up the joys of summer! What’s your go-to trick for beating the heat? Share in the comments below! 🌊✨
