Claremont Medical Centre: Same-Day GP, Walk-In Alternatives, Hours, Fees & Booking
Use this before you call, book, drive down Stirling Highway or choose a walk-in option. The goal is simple: know whether to book Claremont Medical Centre, call reception, compare The Walk-in GP, check mixed billing, or use urgent care instead.
Quick Answer: Is Claremont Medical Centre a Walk-In Doctor?
No — treat Claremont Medical Centre as an appointment-needed GP clinic unless reception tells you otherwise. Healthdirect lists the clinic at 206 Stirling Highway, Claremont WA 6010, phone 08 9285 5100, with appointment needed access and mixed billing.
If you specifically need a no-appointment option in Claremont, Healthdirect separately lists The Walk-in GP — Claremont at 40 St Quentin Avenue. That is a different service, not the same clinic.

How to Book Claremont Medical Centre Without Wasting Time
The safest booking strategy is to use online booking only for simple visits and phone reception when the appointment depends on urgency, doctor choice, fees, appointment length or service type.
Emergency, same-day or routine?
Booked GP or walk-in option?
Mixed billing means ask first.
Standard or long consult?
Medicare, ID, results, forms.
| Booking route | Best for | Weak point |
|---|---|---|
| Phone reception | Same-day needs, fee checks, specific doctors, long consults, Saturday questions and service-specific bookings. | You may wait on hold, but it prevents wrong appointment choices. |
| Official clinic/IPN page | Checking the clinic’s own details and official online booking route. | Still confirm fees and appointment type if anything is complex. |
| Healthengine | Cross-checking listing details and telehealth signal. | Healthengine currently says no appointments are listed there for this practice. |
