COVID-19

Coronavirus (COVID19) is a concern for us all. Here at West Coast Urology we have taken measures to reduce transmission including increased cleaning and increasing hand disinfectant availability for patients. 

If you have symptoms of a cold or flu it is probably best that you do not come to our offices for an appointment until you are well. Please feel free to contact us and we will reschedule your visit on (03) 5229 8550.

If you would prefer a telehealth consultation so you don’t have to come into the offices please contact your surgeon so we can plan a phone call. This is only appropriate for reviews, not first appointments.
