Telehealth services are consultations between a health or medical practitioner and a patient, conducted on the phone or via a video call rather than in person.
Phone or video consultations can be very useful in situations where in-person assessment or treatment is not required. For those with limited mobility or remotely located, it can be much more efficient than attending a clinic.
Currenlty, all Atticus Health patients are being encourage to have Telehealth appointments where an in person consult is not essential. We are also undertaking Telehealth appointments for all Covid-19 testing patients to determine if a patient is exhibiting symptoms before being tested.

Telehealth is being used successfully throughout the world, and proving to be a simple, cost effective and time-saving way for patients to connect with a GP, especially during this coronavirus pandemic where we are being asked to stay home and minimise social interaction.
