Telehealth services from your home GP in Perth
Perth Home GP offers telehealth consultations for patients who have an existing relationship with our doctors. Telehealth is a convenient option for follow-ups, script renewals, referrals, result discussions or completing reports when a physical examination isn’t required. While telehealth provides flexibility and access to your trusted home doctor in Perth, face-to-face consultations may be necessary for more complex medical issues.
Test Result Discussions
In many cases, test results can be provided and discussed over telehealth.
Repeat Scripts
In most cases, repeat scripts for longstanding medications can be provided.
Specialist Referrals
Referrals can be made in circumstances where you have had a recent in-person assessment by a Perth Home GP.
Mental Health
Telehealth is an excellent tool for managing many mental health conditions.
Respiratory Reviews
We provide reviews for patients with respiratory symptoms including COVID-19 and can prescribe COVID antivirals if required.
Paediatric GP Care
We provide care for a wide range of paediatric conditions and can provide referrals to a paediatrician if needed.
Pain Assessments
Some pain complaints cannot be adequately managed without a physical examination and may require a home visit or referral to ED.
Serious Illness
Some patients with serious illness cannot be safely managed over telehealth and may require a home visit or referral to ED.
What our patients say about us
Dr Patten always gives good service. Best thing I ever did was to join this service. Dr Patten is always very thorough, never rushes the appointment. Would not go back to the old system.
Another very positive experience with Dr Mike. Thorough examination and detailed explanations conducted in a warm and friendly manner. Another 5 star experience.
This gp service has been a god send as my elderly mother has mobility issues and going to the gp isnt a simple task for her. With all the problems with the system this became an essential service for us. Thanks
Great service. Very thorough… Very caring doctors and staff…
Both the Dr Sarah and her nurse where amazing and so lovely and easy to deal with would definitely recommend to friends and family!
I was concerned about my little boy who had been poorly throughout the day. I called the after hours GP close to midnight and they were prompt, reassuring and helped put my mind at rest, completing an assessment of my child via a Telehealth consultation. Without this service I would have likely taken my child to the already over stretched emergency department to be seen. I highly recommend this service.
Absolutely amazing. I am so grateful to find the home visit doctors online. I have made bookings for next day to see my mum as she is not very mobile and old. The booking process was easy. Dr Michael Patton is the most knowledgeable doctor I have ever seen.. And I was impressed. What a huge difference to GP we went before with my mum. He checked on her, discussed options I have to help her. So knowledgeable, top professional. I cannot praise him enough for his highly professional approach. The most important for me was his advice what I can next. Needless to say Dr Michael Patton is the legend in they way he treat patients and patient's family member.
Excellent in everyway. Holistic and thorough, great outcomes for my 99 year old mum, thank you
VERY GOOD SERVICE QUICK ,PROMPT AND PROFESSIONAL CALLING THESE GUYS IS MUCH MORE EFFICIENT THAN WAITING IN A DULL DISEASED WAITING ROOM FOR 6 HOURS I WILL DEFINITELY BE USING THIS SERVICE AGAIN
I am so thankful for this amazing service. Caring for a client with Dementia starts to become quite a challenge, with transporting to GP appointments, especially when the client is unwell and starts to have problems with mobility. I decided to call Perth Home GP last week. The receptionist Judy was very helpful and really nice to talk to, she called me back to confirm Dr Mike was available to visit. Dr Mike has now visited twice and has followed up on our clients well being, with a tele health appointment. He was very thorough and ordered some blood test to be done with Saturn Pathology, they are also a home visiting blood collection service, in Perth. I have decided to register for future home visits with Perth Home GP. This will enable us to care for our client at home for as long as possible, with support from Dr Mike and Dr Sarah and their lovely nurses. Many Thanks, Tammy
Service from Perth Home GP was excellent from beginning to end. The communication was excellent and the doctor and nurse that attended were very professional.
Arrived very quickly despite it being New Years Eve and at designated time. Very efficient and thorough with a no nonsense approach
Doctor had a cancellation so arrived before scheduled time frame so that was great.Very professional,informative and pleasant.Great service,highly recommended.
Sara was wonderful and put me ease. She was very thorough with her examination. I recommend this service to anyone who cannot get to see their usual doctor.
Great service on offer with prompt arrival/care, a lovely Dr and Dr's assistant. 1000x more appreciated as after hours on a Friday would mean a trip to the ED (current 10h wait times) or more likely not seeing a Dr at all.
We can't speak highly enough of Perth Home GP. From the initial phone call through to the home visit they were very efficient.
The doctor was very timely and pleasant. He was thorough, really listened to what I had to say and gave a very considered and helpful diagnosis
Dr Ravi and his nurse were amazing!! Piece of mind in a period of great uncertainty. Highly recommend these two
Fantastic staff. Really helped to manage being ill and having a GP and nurse visit and not have to try to lug a sick child out of the house to wait hours in a waiting room. Kind and caring staff.
I could get quick appointment for my mother, Dr Mike Thomas provided good checks, care and prescription, pathology recommendations, overall, very Friendly kind services with passionate helpful and soothing nature of team, appreciate support Afterhour at home visit
Very pleasant , and very helpful
I had a fantastic experience with Perth home GP. The doctors were absolutely lovely. Really listened, explained why they were recommending the treatment, answered all my questions. Very much highly recommend as a service.
Just like the doctors surgery but at home. Fantastic service and such a knowledgeable doctor. Highly recommended to anyone needing to see a doctor in the comfort of your own home.
Very Prompt and Thorough Examination of the patient. The Doctor is very professional and caring. Provided us with necessary medication for immediate relief. Best Wishes and Kind Regards.
Perth Home GP provided an excellent service. Great communication, so I knew exactly what would happen. Text to let me know just before they arrived. The doctor and nurse helped me in a difficult situation. Follow-up from the receptionist was excellent. I would definitely use them again if I need a Doctor's visit at home.
This is the first time I've used Perth Home GP and it was a positive experience. Both the Doctor and Nurse explained what they were doing and why and my mother understood what was happening. Both were very nice and helpful. If you need a home visit from a GP then I whole heartedly recommend Perth Home GP.
I am new to Perth Home GP but I am loving the service. I have mobility issues so it is way easier to have a doctor come to me! Medical care these days is very expensive, especially with most practices stopping bulk billing so in comparison, Home GP fees are quite good once you get the Medicare rebate back. I see Dr Mike Patten and he is great, very knowledgeable and thorough which is really good seeing I have quite complex and chronic medical issues. He doesn't dismiss my concerns like some doctors have in the past. Highly recommend.
Excellent Dr so fast to come. Would recommend to all
Perth HOME GP is a great service . You get a lot more time with the Dr than with a normal GP. You pay more for the home visit but it's well worth it. Dr Mike Patton is great!
Five star service. The Dr and Nurse who called in to see my mother were fabulous. Friendly, professional and easy to deal with. Judy, the patient liaison person was efficient, lovely and caring. We will definitely use this service in future. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
Excellent caring service. Arrived earlier than expected, very professional doctor and nurse who helped immensley. Would recommend.
It is a great service when impossible to reach a GP during day hours. I was home alone with three children sick so it was the only option for me. The doctor came on time with a trainee nurse. They made a mistake with the billing and when pointed out they fixed it promptly.
Great communication making the booking, just before the doctor arrived, when the doctor arrives and then again when he leave. Great service
It was after hour service for a doctor to come to your home without going to hospital. It's very informative an good result too without leaving your home
The receptionists were incredibly helpful, ascertaining my needs without judgement. The doctor and nurse that visit me are also super diligent and compassionate. Thank you for your great service 🙏🏽
Detailed exam and diagnosis at home visit was so welcome. I was too sick to go to a doctor and not quite sick enough to go to hospital. Started me off on required medications and wrote required scripts with instructions. I felt safe and listened to.
Ravi is an excellent doctor. Hope he comes every time we use this service. From the time I called it was about 2 hours before Ravi and his assistant arrived. In my experience this is excellent for an after hours GP. Will definitely be my first choice when using after hours doctor services going forward.
I could not be happier with the service I have received from Dr Patton.
Very happy with the quality of care given by Perth Home GP's doctor Mike Patton. He is very diligent. I was impressed with the effort he applied in assessing my elderly mother's needs and considering what medications she should be taking. The staff at Perth Home GP are helpful and take time to explain how their set up works too. Their price structure is clear and transparent.
Very pleasant manner from the reception to the two doctors, everything explained well, will definitely use them again.
Great service!!! Thank you
Erica was absolutely fabulous finding me a Doctor available to do a home visit for my sick 93 year old Mum. Sincerest thanks also goes to Dr Ravi Ganerola (hope that is correct) for his kindness, care and compassion. Also to his wonderful side-kick Steve, thank you.
Very good service. Doctor Ravi explained everything. Highly recommended.
Very helpful and professional consultation
On time Informative Professional Caring
We called Perth Home GP late on a Tuesday night to see if they could help with my son. They were very professional over the phone and arrived promptly and courteously, and they were excellent with their treatment. Certainly recommend this business.
Good service and Doctor was thorough.
Perth Home GP always provides an excellent service. Dr Mike Patton always explains what treatment is required and ensures that the patient fully understands the reason. His consultations are always conducted in professional and friendly manner.
Ravi and Bec arrived promptly and both were very pleasant to deal with.
Highly recommend, everyone I dealt with was helpful & professional, amazing being able to get a GP & nurse to my home within an hour of calling on a public holiday.
