FAQ

Do I need a referral?

An Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon is both a medical and a dental specialist. At Omsspecialists you will see a specialist for consultation and treatment.

Anyone may be seen by a specialist for consultation and treatment. However, to make benefit of any Medicare and private health insurance rebates, specialist consultation and treatments require referral from your GP or dentist. It is therefore  important that you bring your referral to your initial consultation, or your referral has been forwarded to Newcastle Oral and Facial Surgery prior to your consultation.
