TELEHEALTH. DONE SAFELY.

Not all medical assessments require an in-person GP appointment. We offer telehealth where it is safe and clinically appropriate to do so.

In many cases, test results can be provided and discussed over telehealth.

Patient’s who are unwell and require an urgent review should not be managed remotely.
