Telehealth ACT

Online Doctor in Canberra

Canberra is home to public servants, students and busy families who often cannot take time out of the working day to sit in a waiting room. ConsultNow offers Canberra patients a simple way to see a registered Australian doctor online, from home or the office.

Patients across Belconnen, Tuggeranong, Gungahlin, Woden and nearby Queanbeyan can speak to a doctor by phone, receive a medical certificate for work, ANU or the University of Canberra by email, and collect an eScript from a local pharmacy. When winter colds and flu make leaving the house the last thing you want to do, telehealth keeps care close and convenient.
