Searching for eConsult? This Aveley Practice Is Australian
The phrase “Aveley Medical Centre Ellenbrook” points to the GP practice at 15 Flecker Promenade, Aveley WA 6069, close to Ellenbrook in Western Australia.
That matters because a completely different Aveley Medical Centre exists in Essex, England. The Australian practice does not use the UK’s NHS eConsult, NHS App, NHS 111 or CQC system. For this clinic, use its own online booking service or call (08) 6296 4655.
GP
Aveley Medical Centre Is Near Ellenbrook, Not in the UK
Search results can become confusing because there are clinics named Aveley in both Australia and England, and Aveley and Ellenbrook are neighbouring communities in Western Australia.
| Clinic | Location | Phone | Correct for this page? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aveley Medical Centre | 15 Flecker Promenade, Aveley WA 6069 | (08) 6296 4655 | Yes. This is the clinic covered here. |
| Aveley Medical Centre | 22 High Street, Aveley, Essex RM15 4AD, England | 01708 899490 | No. This is a separate UK NHS GP practice. |
| Ellenbrook Medical Centre | Ellenbrook, Western Australia | Separate service | No. It is not Aveley Medical Centre. |
Does Aveley Medical Centre Use eConsult?
No current Aveley WA patient information reviewed identifies eConsult as the clinic’s booking platform. eConsult is a term most strongly associated with online consultation systems used by UK NHS GP practices.
Aveley Medical Centre instead publishes a normal Book Your Appointment Online route and a reception telephone number. A current Healthengine profile for the same Flecker Promenade clinic also displays online appointment availability.
Start from Aveley Medical Centre’s official website and use its booking button.
Call reception on (08) 6296 4655.
Do not enter Australian patient information into a UK eConsult form simply because the search phrase contains “eConsult”.
How to Book an Aveley GP Appointment
Open the official Aveley Medical Centre website
Start at Aveley Medical Centre and choose the appointment-booking option.
Check that Flecker Promenade is shown
The correct clinic address is 15 Flecker Promenade, Aveley WA 6069. This avoids accidentally booking the Essex practice or another Ellenbrook clinic.
Select an available appointment
Follow the current online booking system to choose an available GP appointment and provide the information requested by that booking service.
Need extra consultation time? Ask before the visit
Aveley’s patient-information page says longer consultations are available and asks patients to tell reception when they need additional time.
Online booking not suitable? Call reception
Phone (08) 6296 4655 and explain what type of appointment or support you need.
Aveley Medical Centre Opening Hours
The practice’s own website currently publishes the following hours.

| Monday | 8:00am–7:30pm | Extended weekday opening. |
| Tuesday | 8:00am–7:30pm | Book online or phone reception. |

Fees and Bulk Billing: Check Before You Confirm
Aveley Medical Centre’s own patient-information page currently says that patients are charged a minimum fee of $75 for an appointment.
The same practice page says it is currently bulk billing:
- Pension Card holders;
- Health Care Card holders; and
- children under 16.
In Australia, bulk billing generally means a health professional accepts the Medicare benefit as full payment for the covered service, so an eligible patient does not pay the consultation fee for that bulk-billed service. Separate services, medicines, vaccines or procedures can still have different costs.
You can read the current Australian government explanation on the Services Australia bulk-billing page.
Ask for a Longer Appointment When You Need One
Aveley’s patient-information page specifically says longer consultations are available. This is worth arranging in advance rather than reaching the end of a standard appointment with an important issue still unexplained.
Tell reception that you may need additional consultation time.
Mention the interpreter need while booking so it can be organised.
Ask whether a longer or specific appointment type is appropriate.
Services Published by Aveley Medical Centre
The official clinic website lists a broader range of services than a simple general-practice appointment page.
General and family medicine
Routine general practice, check-ups and care for adults, children and older patients.
Women’s health
The clinic lists women’s-health services including contraception and pregnancy-related advice.
Skin and minor procedures
Skin checks and minor surgical procedures are among the services published by the clinic.
Testing and monitoring
The site lists onsite pathology as well as ECG and spirometry.
The clinic also lists antenatal care, immunisations, flu vaccination, men’s health, travel vaccination, work-cover health checks and allied-health services. Availability, referral requirements and fees can differ by service, so confirm the specific appointment type before booking.
How Aveley Handles Test Results
Aveley Medical Centre’s current patient-information page says that patients need to book an appointment to receive their results.
It also says results are not normally given over the telephone unless the doctor has authorised that.
Home and Nursing-Home Visits
Aveley’s patient-information page says home visits and nursing-home visits can be arranged when a patient is unable to attend the surgery.
Contact reception on (08) 6296 4655 and explain that the patient cannot make it into the clinic. Reception can tell you what information or assessment is required before a visit is arranged.
Need an Interpreter? Arrange It Before the Appointment
Aveley says an interpreter can be organised when a patient or family member needs one. Call reception on (08) 6296 4655 and tell staff that interpreter support is required.
Moving Practice? How Aveley Describes Medical-Record Transfer
Aveley’s current patient-information page says the patient must sign a consent form at the new practice when requesting a record transfer.
Register or deal with the receiving practice
Ask the new clinic for its medical-record transfer consent process.
Sign the transfer consent
Aveley says the request should be sent to it by the other surgery.
Check whether an administration fee applies
Aveley’s page says an account is created and an administration fee must be paid before records are released. It does not publish the amount on the page reviewed, so this article does not invent a fee.
What to Do When Aveley Medical Centre Is Closed
Aveley publishes several after-hours services on its patient-information page, including an after-hours doctor service and Joondalup GP after-hours arrangements. Provider availability and operating arrangements can change, so check the current service before travelling.
Emergency
For a critical or life-threatening illness or injury, call Triple Zero 000.
Healthdirect
Call 1800 022 222 to speak with a registered nurse 24 hours a day if you are unsure what care you need.
Local after-hours care
Use the clinic’s current patient-information page or the healthdirect Service Finder to locate an appropriate open service.
Aveley Medical Centre Is Not Ellenbrook Medical Centre
The names are easy to mix up because Aveley is close to Ellenbrook and Aveley Medical Centre describes itself as serving nearby communities.
However, the separately named Ellenbrook Medical Centre has had its own address, phone number and patient arrangements. Its current website states that the former Ellenbrook Medical Centre has closed and directs patients towards Total Health Ellenbrook for ongoing care and records.
If You Actually Meant a UK eConsult or NHS GP
Because this website mainly covers UK medical centres, it is worth making the geographic difference explicit. Do not apply Australian Medicare, 000 or Aveley WA booking rules to a UK GP surgery.
Our Village Medical Centre eConsult booking guide shows how an actual UK eConsult GP route differs from Aveley’s Australian online booking.
See the Hayes Medical Centre NHS App and online GP guide for a UK-specific patient-access example.
The Roundwell Medical Centre Patient Access explainer shows why a UK Patient Access result should not be confused with an Australian appointment platform.
