Telehealth
Telehealth Appointment from the Comfort of Your Home
At CRVMC, we offer phone consultations to patients who are not able to travel to the practice for a face-to-face appointment. This service allows you to have an appointment with your doctor from the comfort of your home. Please book a phone consultation with your doctor if any of the following applies to you:
You are self-isolating due to a contagious respiratory disease.
You just need a repeat script for a stable condition
Routine chronic disease management (only for patients with stable conditions)
Getting a referral letter
Please note that in many cases, a face-to-face appointment at our practice is necessary. Your doctor may need to conduct a physical examination depending on your health concerns.
Telehealth consultation allows patients in regional Australia easier access to specialists without the time and expense of travelling. We offer a telehealth service that connects you to specialists in Perth. Teleconferencing can be organised in a designated consulting room with a practice nurse in attendance to assist with the consult. Please discuss this option with our Nurse Manager, Jenny Swan, for availability of this service for your specialist appointments.
Note:
Our telehealth and phone consultation services are only available to those who have been our regular patients for over 12 months.
