A referral from a GP, psychiatrist or specialist is required for admission to Robina Private Hospital. Below you'll find everything you need to know about submitting a mental health, rehabilitation, medical or endoscopy referral — whether you're a patient, GP, psychiatrist or specialist on the Gold Coast.
Robina Private Hospital accepts inpatient and day patient mental health referrals from GPs, psychiatrists and other treating specialists. Referrals should include relevant clinical history, current medications, and the reason for referral. Our intake team reviews all referrals and will contact the referring practitioner or patient to discuss admission options, typically within 1–2 business days. Both overnight and day program admissions are available, covering areas including general mental health, eating disorders, older persons' mental health and young adult programs.
We accept inpatient and day patient referrals for rehabilitation and medical admissions, including general rehabilitation, robotic-assisted rehabilitation and respite care. Referrals can be submitted by GPs, specialists or treating hospital teams and should include current diagnosis, functional status and any relevant imaging or test results. Our admissions team will assess suitability and contact the referrer to confirm next steps.
Endoscopy procedure referrals can be submitted by GPs and specialists for patients requiring diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopy at Robina Private Hospital. Referrals should include clinical indication, relevant history and any prior endoscopy results. Our team will contact the patient directly to arrange a procedure date once the referral has been processed.
