❌ NO SHOW APPOINTMENTS ❌

We understand that life can be busy and unexpected things come up. However, when patients book an appointment and don’t attend—or aren’t able to let us know they need to cancel—it means another patient misses out on the chance to see a doctor. With fewer doctors available, every appointment slot is very important. If you ever need to cancel or reschedule, we kindly ask that you contact us as soon as possible so we can offer that time to someone else who may really need it. Your consideration helps us care for more people in our community.

If you need to cancel or reschedule please call our friendly reception team as soon as possible (07) 4630 0059 📞

It’s NAIDOC Week and we are celebrating with our First Nations team members, patients and communities their rich history, diverse cultures and many achievements. Ochre has been very involved with First Nations communities since we were founded in Bourke over 20 years ago. Today, through our medical centres, we provide care to over 12,000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, through our recruitment teams we place locum doctors into Aboriginal Medical Services and other health facilities caring for First Nations communities around the country, and we are proud ongoing sponsors of the Australian Federation of Medical Women “Purple Bush Leaves Medicine Bursaries” which provide Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women with financial support to further their medical careers. After some wonderful NAIDOC events last year, including at our Oakey practice in Queensland (main picture), our program this year culminates with our Walgett practice in Western NSW which on Friday will be hosting a community celebration in partnership with the Western NSW Local Health District. This is open to everybody in the area and will including a smoking ceremony, a welcome to country and dancing.

We were proud to host Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Federal Minister Julie Collins MP, Tasmanian Opposition Leader Dean Winter MP, Member for Clark Ella Haddad MP, and members of their teams this morning at the Ochre Medicare Urgent Care Clinic (UCC) we operate in Hobart.

The Ochre Medicare UCC is co-located with our Ochre Medical Centre, as well as Capital Chemist, BodyTech Physio and Trusted Smiles Dental, in a Health Hub facility on the corner of Liverpool and Barrack Streets in the Hobart CBD.

If you are a patient and you are ever unsure about a message you receive from us or HotDoc, please contact your clinic directly.
