Locations include Flinders Medical Centre, Noarlunga Hospital, The Jamie Larcombe Centre and GP Plus Health Care Centres (Aldinga, Marion and Noarlunga).
Where to send referrals?
Referrals to SALHN outpatient services should to be sent to the relevant specialty to minimise triaging delays. See the Outpatient Clinic and Community Services contact details to find the referral options for a given SALHN specialty.
Where is my patient's referral at?
The quarterly outpatient waitlist times report will provide you with the outpatient waiting times for category 2 and category 3 patients who have not been given an appointment.
GPs and GP practice staff can contact the GP Referral Hotline when requiring administrative information on referrals. Please wait 48 hours after sending the referral before calling, unless the referral is urgent. Contact 0481 729 040 between 8:30 am and 4:00 pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, you can contact the clinic direct.
