Confirm you mean Norton Street. The correct focus clinic is Leichhardt Medical Centre at 6–8 Norton Street, not the Short Street Medical & Dental Centre.

Open Official Booking Page
Phone for walk-ins, long consults or urgent same-day questions. The FAQ says walk-ins are recommended and appointments are welcome, but people with appointments and emergency cases have priority.
Call 02 9550 0322
Ask for extra time if needed. Request a longer consultation for multiple issues, mental health, chronic disease, skin checks, work injury, forms, driver medicals or complex care.
Ask the billing question before attending. Say: “Is this exact doctor and appointment type bulk billed, mixed billed or privately charged today?”

Bulk bill reality check

Does Leichhardt Medical Centre Bulk Bill?

The safest answer is: there are strong bulk-billing signals, but you should still confirm the exact fee before attending. The clinic’s Dyvest page labels the centre as “Bulk Billing,” provider pages list doctors with “Billing Type: Bulk Billing,” and the FAQ calls it a bulk-billing family practice. However, Healthdirect labels the service as mixed billing and the 2026 fee PDF includes private consultation fees.

Bulk-billing signal Official clinic/provider pages Dyvest pages repeatedly show “Bulk Billing” for the Norton Street clinic and its doctors. Good signal
Mixed-billing signal Healthdirect listing Healthdirect/NSW listing labels Leichhardt Medical Centre – Norton Street as mixed billing. Confirm first
Fee signal 2026 practice fee PDF The fee PDF lists weekday and weekend amounts for standard, long and extended consultations. Do not assume free
Billing situation What the article should say What patient should ask
Routine GP visit with Medicare Bulk billing may be available, but current eligibility should be confirmed. “Is my visit bulk billed with this doctor today?”
Weekend visit Do not assume weekday billing applies; the fee PDF separates weekday and weekend rates. “Is the weekend visit bulk billed or charged privately?”
Long or extended consult May have a different fee or billing rule. “Do I need a Level C or D appointment and what will it cost?”
Commercial driver medical / WorkCover / claim care Private or insurer billing may apply. “Do I need a claim number or do I pay privately?”
No valid Medicare card Do not assume Medicare-funded care. “What is the private fee without Medicare?”
