A GP practice appears to have reversed its decision to introduce out-of-pocket fees for consults with its female doctors following a media backlash.

Complaints were originally triggered about a notice on the website of the MyClinic Prahran which said “all appointments booked with our female doctors” would in future incur a small out-of-pocket cost.
