The consulting hours are 8.30am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday and the Practice does operate a Saturday session between 8.30am and 12.30pm. The Practice is registered with GP Assist and shares after hours requirements with practices in nearby Devonport and Latrobe, which minimises out-of-hours calls for GPs. The Practice offers a mixture of bulk and private billing. Port Sorell Medical Centre is fully computerised using the latest version of Best Practice software.
