No, you don’t need a referral to see one of our physiotherapists. However, if you’re claiming through Workers' Compensation, Motor Vehicle Accident insurance, or the Chronic Disease Management Program (via Medicare), you’ll need a referral from your GP.

Yes, if your private health insurance policy includes extras cover for physiotherapy, exercise physiology and remedial massage- you may be able to claim a rebate for physiotherapy services. We have HICAPS facilities on-site, so you can claim your rebate on the spot.

Medicare does not typically cover private physiotherapy. However, if your GP has referred you under a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan, you may be eligible for a rebate for up to five physiotherapy sessions per year. Wanneroo Physiotherapy does not bulk bill Medicare, a gap payment will be required.

Your initial consultation will include a detailed discussion about your current condition, past history of injury, medical history, goals and expectations, and more . We’ll conduct a thorough physical assessment and work with you to develop a personalised management plan.

An initial consultation is 40 minutes to allow for a comprehensive assessment. Follow-up sessions are 20 minutes- however your physiotherapist may suggest an extended follow up in certain cases (e.g. complex presentations, multiple conditions).

Please bring:

• Any relevant medical reports, imaging (e.g., X-rays, MRIs), or referrals

• Your private health fund card (if claiming through insurance)

• Comfortable clothing suitable for your treatment

Where possible, wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being treated. For example, shorts are ideal for lower limb issues, and a singlet is suitable for shoulder or upper body treatments.

Yes, our physiotherapists can refer you for imaging, such as X-rays, ultrasounds, or MRIs, to assist in diagnosing your condition.

Where possible, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Negative impacts of late cancellations or missed appointments include:

• Delaying necessary treatment or follow-ups, negatively affecting your health outcome.

• Your reserved time slot could have been used to see another patient in need of care. It’s often too late to offer the slot to someone else, reducing access for others.

Absolutely! We provide tailored physiotherapy treatments for patients of all ages, including children and seniors. Our team is experienced in addressing a wide range of conditions across different age groups.
