Referral and Patient Information

We offer specialist care for a full range of benign and malignant haematological issues in adults, including the investigation and management of abnormal blood counts, blood cancers, blood clots and bleeding issues.

A referral from your GP or specialist needs to be sent to admin@riverinahaematology.com.au (preferred) or faxed to (02) 5955 1217 alongside relevant blood test results. You will be contacted with an appointment time based on urgency once the referral has been triaged.
Dr Alani triages all referrals. The timing of your initial appointment will be based on clinical urgency.

You will need to bring:
Your medicare card.
DVA/pension/private insurance card if applicable.
Any recent blood or imaging results since the referral was made or details on where they were done.

We are a private clinic and fees will vary based on the type of appointment you need. In general, after the Medicare rebate, the out of pocket expense is $198 for a new patient and $129 for a follow up appointment. Discounts may be available for low income card/pension card holders (as issued by Centrelink) and bulk billing may be offered in select cases where frequent visits are necessary.
