Looking for medical & hospital trips from Frankston? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Frankston in a wheelchair accessible taxi with a ramp or hoist, four-point wheelchair restraints and a driver trained to help you in and out safely.
Frankston’s centre can be congested around Nepean Highway, Young Street and the station precinct, especially at school times and on weekend afternoons. Frankston Hospital on Hastings Road is busy throughout the day, and drop-offs work best at the main entrance or the patient pick-up area; tell us your department. The Frankston line and Stony Point line meet at Frankston station. Summer events on the foreshore, such as the waterfront festivals, can close roads near the beach. Peninsula Link and the Frankston Freeway are the quickest routes north. Around Monash University’s Peninsula campus, class change times bring a lot of student traffic.

How does “pick up when ready” work?
Book your trip home in advance and choose the pick up when ready option instead of a fixed time. When the hospital clears you to leave, tap “I’m ready” on your booking or phone us, and we send a vehicle then. It suits hospital discharge, day surgery and appointments that tend to run late.
Can you drop me at a particular department?
Yes. Tell us the department, clinic or ward when you book and the driver will head for the most suitable drop-off point at that hospital or medical centre. If the entrance is a short walk from where vehicles can stop, the driver will help you get there.
Can someone else book a medical trip for me?
Absolutely. Family members, carers, support coordinators and clinic staff often book for patients. Give us the passenger’s name, pick-up address and any mobility needs, and choose whether the confirmation goes to the passenger or the person booking. The driver will ask for the passenger by name on arrival.
Do you go to hospitals in Melbourne as well as on the Peninsula?
Yes. Alongside Frankston Hospital and Rosebud Hospital, we regularly take passengers to Monash Medical Centre in Clayton and specialist hospitals in the city. We travel anywhere in Melbourne, so you can book a return trip for treatment, follow-up appointments or visiting a relative in hospital.
I need a regular trip for dialysis. Can I set that up?
Yes. Many passengers have standing bookings for dialysis, chemotherapy or rehabilitation on the same days each week. Let us know the schedule, the treatment centre and whether you need a wheelchair vehicle. MPTP cards are accepted, and approved NDIS and aged-care accounts can be billed for these regular trips.
Questions about medical & hospital trips from frankston

How much does it cost for medical & hospital trips from Frankston?
Fares depend on distance, time of day and waiting time. The booking form shows an estimate, or ask us for a fixed quote.
Can you pick me up from my home, a hospital or an aged-care home in Frankston?
Yes. We pick up from any address — homes, hospitals, clinics, aged-care homes and day programs — and help you from the door to the vehicle.
Can I book a taxi home after being discharged from Frankston Hospital?
Yes. Choose the pick up when ready option when you book, and once staff say you can leave, tap I'm ready or call us. We send the nearest suitable car, including a wheelchair accessible vehicle if needed. The driver meets you at the hospital entrance and can help with bags and getting settled at home.
How do I get from Frankston to Melbourne Airport early in the morning?
Book the night before and give us your flight time so we can plan the pick-up with plenty of margin. Early morning traffic is usually lighter, but we still allow for roadworks and freeway closures. For return trips, add your flight number and we track your arrival so the driver adjusts to delays.
Do you pick up from Frankston station for people coming off the train?
Yes, many passengers use us to finish a journey that started on the Frankston line or the Stony Point line. Tell us which side of the station you will exit and roughly when your train arrives. If you are travelling with a wheelchair, our ramp van or Maxi WAT can meet you at the station.
