Patient Information

Terms of Trade

By signing the QMC PHO enrolment form, or by completing the casual/visitor details form, the patient agrees to these terms of trade.

DNA & Late Policies.

The DNA  (Did not attend) and Late Policy work in conjunction with one another to allow smooth operational running of QMC. It’s important for patients to attend on time and if cancelling to give more than 2 hours notice. Please familiarise yourself with these policies.

Abusive Patient Policy

Violent or abusive patients are not welcome or tolerated at any Queenstown Medical Centre practice.
We request that our staff are treated with respect and that ultimately they, and other patients feel safe in our practices. If a person has verbally or physically abused a team member, or displayed threatening and disruptive behaviour, it may be necessary to ask the patient to leave and/or terminate the patient's enrolment
