Gynaecologist in Australia: fees, Medicare rebates and referrals

Updated 11 November 2026

A private first visit to a gynaecologist in Australia costs about A$240 to A$300, and a Medicare rebate reduces the cost for eligible patients. Public hospital care is free for Medicare cardholders. To get current fees for your city and appointment type, send a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Referrals and rebates

The rebate on a first consultation is linked to a referral: Australian citizens and residents who have been referred receive about A$76 back. Fees also depend on the type of appointment, so ask the clinic whether your visit is a first or a follow-up consultation before you book. Check the rebate with the clinic before you pay, since it is not the same for every visit.

What the price depends on

The price depends on the type of appointment, whether you have a referral, and the Medicare rebate that applies. Initial consultations are priced differently from obstetric visits: one clinic lists A$300 for an initial gynaecological consultation and A$250 for an initial obstetric consultation. Ask for the total you will pay after the rebate, so you can compare clinics fairly.

Timing across the seasons

Australia is in spring now, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. The sources do not link gynaecology fees to the season, so the timing that matters is your appointment date. Book as early as you can, especially if you need a particular doctor or a visit before the summer holidays.

What to write in your request

Say which service you need, the city or area, and when you want the visit. Name the type of venue (private clinic or hospital), the appointment type (initial or follow-up), and whether you have a GP referral. Add the doctor's qualification you want and your budget. Those details let clinics quote the right fee and rebate.
