Appointments, specialists, online admission and pre-admission steps
Kareena is a private hospital, so most planned care starts with a specialist or treating doctor. The hospital’s official Specialist Search lets users search by doctor name and specialty. The hospital admission process then depends on the procedure, doctor booking, funding source and whether a pre-admission clinic review is required.

|---|---|---|
| Find a specialist | 1. Use Kareena Specialist Search. 2. Search by doctor name or specialty. 3. Call the doctor’s rooms. 4. Confirm referral, consulting location, consultation fee, procedure estimate and whether they admit at Kareena. | Specialist Search |
| Book admission after doctor confirms procedure | 1. Complete the online admission form as soon as possible. 2. Prepare personal/next-of-kin details, Medicare card, funding details and benefit card details. 3. Wait for hospital review or instructions. 4. Contact pre-admission if unsure. | Online Admission Form / (02) 9717 0319 |

| Day surgery | Confirm arrival location, fasting, medication instructions, who will collect you, whether you need an adult overnight and what costs must be paid on admission. | (02) 9717 0232 |
| Maternity booking | 1. Choose obstetrician. 2. Complete online admission. 3. Book midwife interview/classes early. 4. Save Delivery Suite phone. 5. Bring antenatal card when coming to hospital. | (02) 9717 0226 / maternity.krp@ramsayhealth.com.au |
| Self-funded estimate | Ask the hospital for hospital costs, then separately confirm doctor, anaesthetist, assistant, pathology, radiology, pharmacy and allied-health charges. | Estimations.KRP@ramsayhealth.com.au |
Doctor availability rule: do not publish guessed doctor rosters, consultation days, procedure dates or private doctor fees. Use the official specialist search and confirm directly with the doctor’s rooms.
