Over the Easter long weekend, we moved into our beautiful, new consulting rooms on Level 3 in the Ramsay Specialist Centre. We look forward to welcoming patients to our new space later today.
To find us, when you enter the Ramsay Specialist Centre, take the lift to Level 3, and as you exit the lift, Suite 317 is on the right hand side.

We’ve been working hard over the last six months to create a new, beautiful and inviting space for our patients.
I am very excited to share that from 19 April 2022 (just after Easter), GAALS will be moving to our new consulting rooms, up one floor to Suite 317 in the Ramsay Specialist Centre.
All of our other contact details will stay the same.
We look forward to welcoming you to our new space soon.

The escalating transmission of COVID-19 is concerning and continues to be a challenge for everyone. I hope you and your families are safe and well at this difficult time.
As we reopen for 2022, we plan to see patients and operate at Greenslopes as normally as possible, and have implemented additional safety measures in our personal protective equipment and cleaning. Our online booking form is the best way to browse and book the appointment that suits you best.
“If you have any COVID-19 symptoms or are unwell, please don’t visit our consulting rooms – we can change your appointment to telehealth, or reschedule it for another time”
The most important thing you can do is to stay home if you are unwell or have any COVID-19 symptoms. We offer telehealth appointments where suitable – please ask us if you think that’s a better option for you at this time.
wear a face mask that covers your nose, mouth and chin, use some hand sanitiser, and maintain physical distance when you can
check in using the Check In Qld app and show your ‘green tick’ to our receptionist
use our patient portal to fill in your demographic details and upload your referral before your appointment to minimise the handling of paperwork in our practice
use contactless forms of payment.
we check the COVID-19 vaccination status of all patients and visitors
we continue to use appropriate personal protective equipment, including masks and eye wear, and have implemented additional cleaning of high-touch areas in our consulting rooms
all GAALS employees are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, we follow all health advice, and will not work in our consulting rooms if we have any symptoms of COVID-19 – I am sorry if this results in any inconvenience or last minute changes to appointments or surgery.
We know that things may change – for you and for us – during this difficult time, and I thank you in advance for your understanding. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.

At the end of what has been a challenging and busy year, I'd like to thank my patients and referring GPs for their continued support.
Next year promises to be a year of growth and change, but more about that soon!

If you need to make an appointment, the easiest way to book is by using our online booking form. You can browse and book the time that suits you best.
Wishing you and your families a safe and peaceful festive season.

Recently the government made a decision to suspend all non-urgent elective surgery in public and private hospitals.
“Only elective surgery categorised as ‘Category 1’ and some ‘Category 2’ procedures will be allowed to continue”
Category 1 procedures are for patients needing treatment within 30 days.
Category 2 procedures are for patients needing treatment within 90 days; this includes treatment for conditions that cause pain, dysfunction or disability.
Category 3 procedures are for patients needing treatment at some point in the next year. All Category 3 procedures will be temporarily suspended.
We will be in touch with patients who are currently booked for surgery to let them know whether their procedure can go ahead. There may be delays for patients who have not yet been booked for surgery.
Please contact us by email or phone 07 3067 7086 with any questions.

Recently we have implemented changes due to COVID-19 (coronavirus) to promote the health of our patients and practice staff. While we expect COVID-19 will have some impact on our services, we are continuing to book appointments and operations in line with current advice from the government and Greenslopes Private Hospital.
We regularly review the recommended advice and are monitoring the health of our practice staff and have plans in place should they become unwell.
Prior to all appointments in our consulting rooms, our staff will call patients to ask a few questions before their appointment is confirmed.
We ask that every patient uses the hand sanitiser we provide when they arrive for their appointment. We are wiping down door handles and bench surfaces as a precaution after every patient. As an additional precaution, we have arranged our waiting room to allow sufficient 'social distancing' between chairs.
Greenslopes Private Hospital advise that operating will continue with some additional measures to minimise risk to hospital patients, visitors and staff. This may include screening every person prior to entry, and limitations on the number of visitors that patients may have.
Prior to all operations, our staff AND Greenslopes Private Hospital will call patients to check their operation can go ahead as planned.
I appreciate your patience during this difficult time. I would like to assure you that the health and safety of our patients and practice staff is a very high priority.
Please call us on 07 3067 7086 or contact us by email if you have any questions.

At the end of another incredibly busy year, I'd like to thank my patients and network of referring GPs for their support of GAALS in 2017.
With the move to the Ramsay Specialist Centre in Greenslopes Private Hospital this year, GAALS has continued to grow. I'm pleased to be able to offer personalised and patient-centered care in such a modern and convenient location.
In 2018 I hope to increase my availability to give patients more options for appointment times and make sure I can continue to offer prompt attention to my patient's needs.
GAALS will be closing on 22 December 2017 and will reopen on 2 January 2018.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you next year.
