Iron infusions are incredibly safe in our hands. Our clinic is run by a team of Specialist Haematologists (Blood Specialists), all of whom have a special interest in anaemia and iron deficiency.

The Iron Clinic was established by Dr Joel Collins (Clinical Haematologist) in 2019 and has grown to be one of of the largest iron infusion clinics in Australia. As such, our specialist doctors and nurses have a great deal of experience in delivering iron infusions safely and efficiently.

The service is available for all suitable patients including pregnant women and adolescents. For children under the age of 14, suitability will be decided on a case by case basis.

The iron infusion/venesection service is available to patients without private health insurance. As the service is provided on an outpatient basis, no hospital admission fee is payable.

Fees for our service

• The combined out of pocket for the consultation with our haematologist as well as the iron infusion is approximately $150. A concession/pensioner discount is also available.
• Patients are required to fill a prescription for their iron before attending. This is paid directly to the dispensing pharmacy. The cost is currently around $6.60 for health care care holders, or up to $36 for those without a concession (price may vary between pharmacies)

Referred and non-referred patients

Patients do not require a referral for this service, however referrals are welcomed from all referring practitioners.

Iron Deficiency Screening Clinic

A bulk-billed iron deficiency screening clinic (via telehealth) is available. We recognise that many patients have known iron deficiency, or symptoms consistent with iron deficiency but find it difficult to either get a formal diagnosis or are unable to access timely treatment.

We run a nurse practitioner led iron deficiency screening clinic for these patients.  Further information can be found here.
