Emergency contraception you can access privately in Carindale
Privacy is one of the biggest concerns people have when they need emergency contraception, especially young people. At Carindale Doctors, your visit is confidential from start to finish. You only need to tell reception it’s urgent, and everything else is discussed privately with your GP. Your health information isn’t shared without your consent.
Our GPs act quickly, too. Same-day slots are held every morning, and your consultation is short and focused on getting you the most effective option for your timing. If you’d like, we can also talk about STI testing and longer-term contraception, but there’s never any pressure.
In short: Carindale Doctors offers confidential and fast emergency contraception inside Westfield Carindale. Same-day slots are held each morning, young people can be seen privately, and children 16 and under are bulk billed. Your GP matches the option to your timing, with Medicare rebates applied where eligible.

Your privacy at our Carindale clinic
Because our clinic sits inside a busy shopping centre, coming in is discreet. Nobody needs to know why you’re at Westfield Carindale. Our reception team won’t ask for details, and your GP will explain how your information is kept confidential.
More information about timing and options is on our emergency contraception page.
Questions people worry about but don't ask
We know some questions feel awkward. These are the ones we’re asked most, and we’re always happy to answer them:
- Will it show up on my Medicare record?: your GP can explain how your information appears and options to keep it private.
- Can my partner come with me?: yes, or you can come alone.
- Will it hurt my body?: emergency pills are very safe and don't affect future fertility.
- Should I get an STI test?: if the sex was with a new or casual partner, testing is a good idea.
If you’d rather not discuss something, that’s fine too. We’ll focus on what you need today.
What your confidential appointment includes
Your appointment will typically include:
- A private discussion of timing and circumstances

- Clear instructions and what to expect afterwards
