Dr. Mick Cornish has availability on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesday morning and Thursday while Dr. Simon Breen is in attendance on Wednesdays and Fridays. To check appointment availability for each practitioner and to schedule your appointment, please use the online booking system.
If you're an existing client of Orange Chiro and need to be seen on a day when your regular chiropractor is unavailable, we encourage you to see the other practitioner as they will have secure access to your files. Remember, it's best to take care of your issue sooner rather than later.
In most cases ... no! Most of our clients simply book an appointment online.
However, if your GP has provided you with an Enhanced Primary Care referral (Medicare EPC), you'll need to present this referral and your Medicare card at the time of your first consultation. Likewise, if you are the holder of a Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) gold or white card, you'll need the appropriate referral from your GP.
Whether you are a private client or have a GP referral, please use our online booking system to schedule your appointment.
When you consult with Orange Chiro as a new client, the initial consultation fee is $120 which includes examination and treatment.
X-rays are not included in the initial consult however, if clinically required to assist in diagnosing your condition, the fee is $110.
Standard consultation fees (including treatment) for existing clients are $70.
No. Many conditions do not need x-rays however, should imaging of your spine be of clinical advantage in determining the nature and severity of your condition, x-rays can be taken on-site at Orange Chiro.
The process for determining whether there is enough clinical reason to to take x-rays can be simplified into the following considerations your chiropractor will make;
- Is the potential benefit of the x-ray outweighed by the potential harm?
- Is there appropriate evidence to support taking an x-ray in this case?
- Is a decision to take an x-ray in this case supported by clinical experience?
- Will an x-ray significantly impact my management of this case?
Of course, if you already have x-rays or other scans relevant to your presenting condition, please bring the images or reports with you.
