Referral
A referral from your doctor will be required to access a rebate from Medicare for your test. It is helpful if you are able to forward a copy of your referral prior to the appointment to ensure we have booked you for the correct test or appointment.
There is the option of emailing or faxing that to us or your doctor may have already sent it through to us directly. Alternatively, please bring your referral form with you to your appointment on the day.
Medications
Please bring a written list of your current medications and doses.
Previous Heart Investigations
Please advise us at the time of booking if you’ve had heart investigations elsewhere within the last two years. This may affect your Medicare rebate if the test is being repeated.
Blood Tests
It is very helpful if you can bring copies of any recent blood tests (in particular cholesterol results). If not please advise reception of which Pathology Company completed the blood test and we can access them prior to your appointment if required.
How to find us
Flow is conveniently located on the Western side of Bermuda Street across the road from the Harvey Norman complex. Our address is 1 Lake Orr Drive, Varsity Lakes.
Carparking
The carpark entrance is accessed after the second roundabout on Lake Orr Drive. Take the second carpark entry signed for ambulances and taxis. There is 1 hour Visitor carparking on the left hand side.
Our clinic
Our clinic is on Level 1 (the same level as the carpark). The entrance to the clinic is outside on the terrace, next door to the café.
Arrival
Please arrive approximately 10 minutes prior to your appointment time. This will ensure that we are able to assist you with your registration details prior to your appointment.
Suitable clothing
For most heart investigations our staff will need access to your chest area. Please avoid wearing dresses or all-in-one outfits so that clothing on your top half can be easily removed. Ensuring your modesty is our priority, and ladies will be offered a gown to wear during the testing procedure.
Showers
If you wish to shower following your exercise testing showers are available on site. Please bring a towel and toiletries.
