The doctor assesses the injury and writes your Certificate of Capacity. We coordinate your treatment and help with the paperwork. No cost to you on accepted claims, billed to WorkCover.

Sylvania sits across the Captain Cook Bridge from Sans Souci, with locals working in retail along the Princes Highway, hospitality, marine trades and the construction crews servicing the surrounding waterfront homes. WorkCover claims here lean toward retail shelf-stocker shoulder damage, kitchen burns and wait-staff slips, propeller and rigging lacerations in the river boatyards, plus tile-setter and plasterer knee injuries from constant work on the Georges River housing stock.
