Our bulk billing doctors open 7 days a week, so you can see a doctor on a day that suits you. We also do our best to provide same day and urgent appointments for patient convenience and peace of mind.

Aviation Medicals Brisbane
Aviation medical certificates are regulated by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). These medical certificates are mandatory for a range of pilot and aircrew licenses. CASA also requires that Designated Aviation Medical Examiners (DAME) undertake rigorous training in aviation medicine to carry out these medical evaluations. You may require an aviation medical certificate if you are or thinking of becoming a pilot, flight engineer, navigator, radio operator or air traffic control staff.
The Family Practice CASA DAME, Dr Prabash, specialises in Aviation Medicine. We can therefore provide casa medical certificates for class 1, class 2 and class 3 pilot license and aircrew license requirements.
Appointments are readily available. We also offer ongoing support to our aviation clients for their convenience. To book an appointment with our Aviation Medical Examiner call us today.
*Online appointments are not available for aviation medicals. Fees apply. Contact us for more information.
Appointments
Our Standard appointments are 10 minutes long. However you are welcome to request a longer appointment if you feel that you will need extra time. To arrange this please call us during practice hours.
Online Appointment Policy
Online appointments only book a standard consultation time slot. As certain examinations, such as medicals, procedures or complex health conditions require more time to complete, a standard consultation may not be long enough. For that reason, we ask that you call us if you think you will need more time for your appointment.
Additionally, our online booking system only makes appointments for a single patient. If multiple patients will be attending please book one appointment per person. If you require assistance with this, you can call us so we can arrange this for you.
Vaccines/immunisations cannot be booked online. Please call us to book your appointment. If you fail to do so we may not be able to provide you with the immunisation you require.
Cancellation Policy
A $60 cancellation/no-show fee applies if you don’t cancel an appointment at least one hour prior to your appointment time if you can no longer attend.
From the 2nd of September, 2019 our bulk billing doctors will be offering walk-in appointments. So you don’t have to wait to see a doctor. You could also avoid the wait at the hospital emergency department for minor injuries. Simply walk-in during our regular practice hours.
Apr 16 2019 Easter Opening Hours
The Gap Family Practice will be closed for the Easter long weekend from Good Friday (19.4.19) to Easter Monday (22.4.19). We will also close on the ANZAC Day public holiday. We do apologise if this causes you any inconvenience. Online bookings will be available throughout the public holidays so you can still book appointments.
