Iron Infusions
If your GP recommends an iron infusion, our experienced nursing team at Emerald Medical Centre can administer this treatment safely and comfortably. Iron infusions are used to help restore healthy iron levels when oral supplements are not effective or suitable.
Appointments usually take 60–90 minutes, allowing time for preparation, the infusion itself, and monitoring afterwards.
The cost of an iron infusion can be found on our payment information page. Payment is required on the day of your appointment.
