How do I book an abortion appointment in Brisbane?

What abortion services are available at the MSI Brisbane clinic?

Our Bowen Hills clinic offers both medical abortion and surgical abortion. Medical abortion is available for pregnancies up to 9 weeks gestation and is a one-stop service, with ultrasound and medication all provided in a single visit. Surgical abortion is a safe, straightforward day procedure available up to 16 weeks gestation at our Brisbane clinic. We also offer abortion by telehealth for those who prefer to manage early pregnancy termination privately from home, without visiting a clinic. No referral is required for any of these services.

What is the difference between medical and surgical abortion?

A medical abortion is a non-surgical option for ending an early pregnancy, up to 9 weeks gestation. It involves taking two medications in two stages. The first is taken at our Brisbane clinic and the second is taken at home 24 to 48 hours later. A surgical abortion is a safe and common day procedure, available at our Bowen Hills clinic up to 16 weeks gestation. It is performed under local anaesthetic or intravenous sedation, with a short recovery period before you are discharged into the care of a support person. Our team will talk you through both options and help you decide what suits your circumstances.

Are abortions subsidised in Queensland?

Abortion services are not free in Queensland for most people, however Medicare covers a significant portion of costs for eligible patients, reducing your out-of-pocket expenses. If you are experiencing financial difficulty, MSI Australia offers a financial hardship program. Contact our National Contact Centre on 1300 003 707 to discuss your options and any available referral pathways.

Is abortion covered by Medicare in Brisbane?

Yes. Medicare provides rebates for both medical and surgical abortion services at our Brisbane clinic. When you attend your appointment, please bring your Medicare card and your month and year of expiry. We will process your Medicare claimable items on your behalf on the day.

How many weeks pregnant can you have a termination in Queensland?

Under Queensland law, termination of pregnancy is available on request up to 22 weeks gestation. Beyond 22 weeks, a termination may only be performed in certain circumstances, and two medical practitioners must both agree that it should proceed. MSI Australia offers termination services up to 16 weeks gestation at our Brisbane clinic. If you are unsure of your gestation, you can use the gestation calculator at msiaustralia.org.au or call us directly for guidance.

Can a GP prescribe abortion medication in Brisbane?

In Queensland, a GP, nurse practitioner, or endorsed midwife may be authorised to prescribe abortion medication for early pregnancies. However, not all GPs in Brisbane offer this service. If your GP does not provide this service, they have an obligation under Queensland law to refer you to another provider who does.
At MSI Brisbane, our specialist team provides abortion services directly and no referral from a GP is required. You can book with us online or by calling 1300 003 707.

Can a pharmacist prescribe abortion medication?

No. In Australia, a pharmacist cannot prescribe abortion medication. A prescription must be issued by an authorised medical practitioner, nurse practitioner or endorsed midwife.

At MSI Brisbane, our doctors manage the entire process for you as part of your appointment. No separate GP visit is required.
