Telehealth VIC

Online Doctor in Ballarat

Ballarat is a large regional city in central Victoria where cold winters, busy clinics and commuting to Melbourne can make getting to a GP hard. ConsultNow lets Ballarat patients see an AHPRA-registered Australian doctor online, from home.

From Wendouree and Sebastopol to Buninyong, Creswick and Daylesford, patients can request a consultation, speak with a doctor by phone and receive a medical certificate or eScript digitally. Winter bugs are no fun to take on a drive, and telehealth lets you get advice and, where appropriate, a prescription without leaving the warmth of home.
