Late Night GPs
Getting sick or injured doesn’t always happen during business hours. If your regular GP is closed, there are still healthcare options available across Western Sydney to help you get the care you need, when you need it.
Our After Hours program helps local residents access the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
What Does “After Hours” Mean?
After hours healthcare is available outside the normal operating hours of most GP clinics:
• Weekdays: 6.00 pm to 8.00 am
• Saturday: Before 8.00 am and after 12.00 pm
• Sunday and public holidays: All day
1800Medicare
If you need urgent medical care for an illness or injury that is not life-threatening, call 1800MEDICARE (1800 022 222).
A registered nurse will assess your symptoms and connect you to the most appropriate care, which may include:
- Advice to manage your condition at home
- A telehealth consultation with a GP
- Referral to an Urgent Care Service
- Referral to another local healthcare service
The service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
