I
would
like
to
leave
an
honest
review
about
my
recent
experience
at
Dural
Family
Medical
Practice.
Overall,
the
reception
staff
were
friendly
and
accommodating,
and
the
practice
was
well
presented.
Be
warned,
it
is
clear
that
Dr
Kevin
Aung
only
cares
about
financial
gain.
I
wasn't
going
to
leave
a
review
but
my
second
appointment
with
him
has
confirmed
my
concerns
and
I
would
like
others
to
know.
Consultation
prices
are
0-20
minutes
at
$74
and
20-40
minutes
at
$136.
My
first
appointment
was
22
minutes
which
I
understand
according
to
the
time
stamp.
However,
upon
speaking
with
the
doctor
for
clarification,
he
advised
he
begins
his
timer
prior
to
collecting
his
patient
from
the
waiting
room
ans
stops
the
timer
after
he
finishes
the
patients
notes
after
the
leave.
He
then
proceeded
to
ask
me
how
long
I
felt
the
appointment
was
which
I
answered
18
minutes
as
this
was
based
on
the
time
I
entered
to
the
time
I
messaged
my
partner
after
the
appointment.
He
questioned
whether
I
was
experiencing
financial
difficulty
and
gave
me
a
$21
discount.
My
second
appointment
was
through
telehealth
to
receive
my
results
with
the
same
GP.
Prior
to
making
this
appointment
I
clarified
with
reception
whether
i
could
have
these
results
sent
to
me
and
whether
there
would
be
a
gap
payment
for
my
appointment.
Reception
advised
me
that
result
appointment
needed
to
be
with
the
doctor
and
are
bulk-billed
as
long
as
only
results
were
discussed.
All
my
results
were
normal,
a
recommendation
for
iron
tablets
was
made,
and
then
the
doctor
advised
I
needed
to
pay.
When
I
let
him
know
what
the
receptionist
had
advised
me,
his
response
was
"it
takes
a
lot
of
effort
to
give
the
patient
the
results".
Given
my
normal
results
and
no
further
issues
discussed,
I
think
my
point
is
clear.
I
didn't
pay
the
gap
as
per
the
miscommunication,
however
reception
acknowledged
but
did
not
take
accountability
for
the
miscommunication
and
expected
me
to
pay.
