First Seizure Clinic

Health professional information

View Patient Information
The Alfred First Seizure Clinic runs a weekly clinic for adults with first seizures. The clinic operates at The Alfred, and appointments are available in-person and via video-telehealth. We are able to access state-of-the-art investigations offered through the broader Alfred Epilepsy program, and we may be able to offer you opportunities to participate in national and international research studies through our affiliation with Monash University - this will depend on whether trials are recruiting participants at the time of your visit.

Exclusion criteria

We can not use referrals that are not addressed to our program and do not have a specialist listed.

Request an "indefinite" referral to Professor Andrew Neal and Team,  First Seizure clinic, The Alfred.

This referral needs to be received prior to your patient's next appointment or unfortunately we cannot book the follow up in.

A current referral is required for all clinic appointments.

If not received your patient's appointment may be delayed and they may be transferred to another treating clinic for follow up care.

MBS-billed service

On the doctor’s behalf, Alfred Health can bulk bill the cost of the consultation for some services through Medicare. This means there is no out of pocket expense to the patient. 

MBS-billed services require a current referral. Provide your patient with a 12 month referral to see the specialist of your choice at the requested clinic. 

Referrals must be addressed to a named specialist or the Head of service, listed at the top of this page. Clinic consultants are listed on every clinic page.

Note that from time to time, your patient may be seen by another specialist in the clinic, in order to expedite their treatment.
