I have spoken this morning with Dr Dilley's rooms and they have advised that the operation is $710 and you get $245 back on medicare, so a total of $465. Dr Dilley is a Paediatric Trauma Surgeon so I figure the higher price is worth it.
He also uses a local anasthetic to ensure that everything is numb and there is no pain during surgery.
He will only operate on babies up to 6 weeks (8 at an absolute push),.
All up, you spend about 1 1/2 hrs in his rooms.
