Health insurances

Southern Cross Health Insurance patients

Dr Speeden is an Affiliated Provider with Southern Cross. If you wish to have your appointment covered by Southern Cross (depending on your policy), please let us know this when making your appointment. We will need your membership number at the time of booking.

All other health insurance patients

We require full payment at the time of your appointment and will issue you with a receipt that you can use to claim back from your insurance company.

Payment and Cancellation Policy

Payment is by bank transfer on the day of your appointment. All prices include GST.

Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment. Regretfully, due to high demand, the full fee will apply for cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice, or for failure to attend a booked appointment, as this prevents us from offering that time to another family.

Psychometric assessments will also be charged if an appointment is cancelled after these have been requested.
