Mead Medical Group
About the Business
Welcome to Mead Medical Group, a trusted institution located at 11 Salix Way, Forrestfield, Australia. We are a doctor's establishment that prioritizes your health and well-being. As a point of interest in the community, we strive to provide exceptional medical care to all our patients.
At Mead Medical Group, we understand the importance of accessibility and convenience. That's why we have an additional location at 37 Elizabeth St, Kalamunda, ensuring that our services are easily accessible to all residents in the area. You can reach us at (08)9293 4455 or fax us at (08)9257 1183 in Kalamunda, and at (08)9293 4455 or fax us at (08)9453 3443 in Forrestfield.
We pride ourselves on being there for you, even during public holidays. Mead Medical Kalamunda will be open all public holidays from 8:30am to 3pm in 2023, except for Good Friday on April 7th and Christmas Day on December 25th. Your health matters to us, and we are committed to providing continuous care throughout the year.
As a medical practice, we face the challenge of rising costs while Medicare rebates remain stagnant. Medicare rebates have only increased by 1.2% to 2.5% from 1995 to 2012, and from 2012 to 2017, almost all MBS rebates were frozen with no increase. This financial gap between Medicare reimbursements and the costs of running a practice, including wages, rent, consumables, and insurance, makes it unsustainable to bulk bill patients for all services provided.
To adapt to these changes, all our GPs at Mead Medical Group are independent consultants. They set their own individual fee structures and billing methods in compliance with ATO laws. As a result, you may experience varying fees depending on the GP you see. We encourage you to speak directly to your regular GP if you have any concerns or queries regarding your fees.
We offer multiple ways to book appointments for your convenience. You can book a phone or video consultation online through our website or by downloading the AUTOMED app. Alternatively, you can call us at 9293 4455. If a face-to-face examination is necessary, our GPs will make appropriate arrangements for you to have a consultation at our practice.
Please note that our regular private billing fees apply for all services provided at Mead Medical Group. We offer a range of vaccinations for adults and children, including Influenza and Covid. Appointments for vaccinations are available at both our locations. Additionally, if you have cold or flu symptoms, we may recommend COVID testing for your safety and the well-being of others.
For non-urgent queries, you can email us at admin@meadmedical.com.au. However, please remember that this should not replace a consultation with your GP.
At Mead Medical Group, we prioritize urgent care appointments. Our Saturday appointments start from 1pm onwards, and on Sundays and public holidays, we offer appointments all day. To secure an urgent appointment, we recommend booking online early as these slots fill up quickly.
We take great pride in the recognition and awards we have received. Collean Guest, our Practice Manager since 2019, was awarded the 2023 AAPM WA State winner for Practice Manager of the year. Dr. Rebecca Hunt-Davies, one of our esteemed doctors, received the 2021 RACGP General Practice Supervisor of the Year award. Furthermore, Mead Medical was named the General Practice of the Year in 2013/14 by the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, showcasing our commitment to excellence.
We also offer additional services such as Bone Density assessments through our visiting service. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or have high blood glucose levels, our doctors can provide specialized care and support.
We bid farewell to our outgoing GP Registrars, Dr. Toby Muia, Dr. Ibrahim Fleyful, and Dr. Elizabeth Dernie, and warmly welcome back Dr. Emma Vitale to our family of dedicated healthcare professionals.
Thank you for choosing Mead Medical Group as your trusted healthcare provider. Book an appointment online through our website or by downloading the AUTOMED app. For non-booked attendances, we will triage and see patients based on urgency and arrival time.

Reviews
"Very helpful admin staff and Dr Naveed Akram a very professional, experienced and friendly Doctor. Very happy with my experiences over the past 4 years. Well done to the whole team."
"Reception staff are so rude, unhelpful & shouldn’t be working anywhere near people needing care. Kalamunda ones especially, even the admin, just horrible.Doctors are good but being at this practice have to change like wounded bulls. GP urgent care here is absolutely useless, don’t bother. They shouldnt even have it"
"I have been attending Mead Medical for the past 11+ years and cannot fault their Doctors, Staff, nor their facilities. Mead Medical was recommended to me by a family member, and upon my first visit I knew immediately I had finally found a GP who cared about his patients and went above and beyond to offer the very best of care. Doctor Warren Thyer is my Doctor, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to find a really good Doctor. In my opinion, they don't come any better! I know my Doctor maintains and develops an abundance of knowledge in his field, and as qualified as he is, he never hesitates to organise an outside consult with a specialist if needed. I know he is a genuine and good person who has a kind and caring soul. I know he cares about the health and well-being of his patients! He shows sincere care and concern, and actually listens to and understands his patients! Dr Thyer is your true family Doctor and has always been a great support! He has also been my Children's Doctor since conception and I only trust Mead Medical with their care! I have attended appointments with several other Doctors at this practice over the years, on occassions when my Doctor might have been unavailable, and each and every one of them have been magnificent, however I have found Dr Greg Caddy, Dr James Read, Dr Melissa Marlow and Dr Celia Worth are also exceptional Doctors who are very attentive and proactive. I have noticed a few reviews complaining about the wait time - I rarely have too much of a wait, but on the odd occasion I do - it is worth the wait for any one of these Doctors as you will receive a level of care rarely found at many other practices! Mead Medical also offer clean facilities and helpful, friendly admin and nursing staff! I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for the best medical care!"
"I'm not surprised this practice has so many 1 star review's, I'm obviously not the only one who has endured a terrible experience, I saw Sandy Braiuka this girl makes zero effort to touch base with her patient, over the course of over two weeks I made 4 attempts to contact her and evey single time was ignored. This place was referred to me so I'll make note to inform that business of my experience and hopefully they'll reassess their opinion"
