Call us and we'll get you in with a WorkCover doctor from day one.
Injured at work in Lismore or the Northern Rivers area? Call us and we'll book you in with a WorkCover doctor near you, in person or by telehealth. The doctor assesses the injury and writes your Certificate of Capacity. We coordinate your treatment and help with the paperwork. No cost to you on accepted claims, billed to WorkCover. WorkCover is simply the NSW name for workers compensation, and once your claim is accepted your medical treatment, time-off wages and rehabilitation are covered under the scheme.
Lismore is the civic and healthcare hub of the Northern Rivers, home to Lismore Base Hospital and Southern Cross University's Lismore campus. The 2022 flood and the rebuild that followed left a long tail of construction, restoration, and psychological-injury claims across the CBD and surrounding suburbs, layered over a steady agricultural and allied-health workforce.
