Is this right for you?
When telehealth may, and may not, suit
Every person is different. Your practitioner considers your individual circumstances, and will recommend an in-person assessment where that would serve you better.
Telehealth may suit you if
- Everyday concerns that can be talked through by video
- You have a private space and a device with a camera
- You want care that works alongside your regular GP
Better seen in person if
- You need a hands-on physical examination
- Symptoms that are severe or rapidly worsening
- You need in-person tests or procedures the same day
Telehealth is not suitable for every metabolic health concern. Your practitioner may instead recommend in-person assessment, urgent care, a GP review, a referral to another doctor, further investigation or no treatment.
A prescription, referral or test is one possible outcome, only where your practitioner considers it clinically appropriate.
Results vary from person to person. An assessment does not guarantee any particular outcome.

Weight & Metabolic Health questions
What happens in a metabolic health consultation?
You talk with a qualified Australian practitioner about your health and your history. They consider what is relevant to your circumstances, discuss whether any tests would help, and talk through a suitable next step. What that step is differs from person to person.
Is a particular treatment guaranteed?
No. Any next step is only where your practitioner considers it clinically appropriate for you, after speaking with you. Outcomes include advice, lifestyle support, monitoring, tests, a referral, or no treatment. Individual results vary, and an assessment does not guarantee a particular outcome.
Do I need a referral to book?
No. You can book a consultation directly. If your practitioner considers a referral to another doctor appropriate after speaking with you, they can discuss that during the call. With your consent, they can also share what was discussed with your regular GP.
Is this suitable for everyone?
No. Telehealth is not suitable for every concern, and some assessments need an in-person examination or tests first. Your practitioner will tell you if that applies to you. Any next step is only where they consider it clinically appropriate for your circumstances.
