Medical in Sydney

Hi guys

Having just recently moved to Sydney I am looking to get a medical done. Any advice on the cheapest doctor/place to go?

Sydney's a big place.

Do you want to narrow down your location a little?? That might help with suggestions.

The cost will also depend on your age and the type of medical you are after.

Sydney Aviation Medical Centre on Pitt St, CBD. Surprisingly affordable compared to a lot of others around the CBD/north/east/inner west (I called around and got quotes for my last medical).

Dr Lele in North Sydney does a pretty straight forward medical. Somewhere in the order of $135 for class 1 renewal.
