Payment is made at the time of consultation. EFTPOS/credit card payment is available and Medicare claims will be submitted on the day of consultation.

If you book for surgery, you will be provided with a full outline of Dr Tucker’s fees.

Dr Tucker is a ‘known gap’ provider, which means that there will never be a surgeon out-of-pocket expense greater than $500 for your operation.

Cancellation fees are 50% of the consultation fee for fewer than 2 business days’ notice of cancellation. Cancellation can take place by telephone or email to admin@dannytucker.net
