About Qoctor
Qoctor, the online doctor, was founded in late 2017 by a group of experienced Australian GPs. Qoctor offers a new format of online healthcare in Australia – one that’s designed to suit the patient. It’s simple, affordable and provided by registered Australian doctors. And because it’s online, it’s accessible wherever you happen to be.
With Qoctor, you can book a same day telehealth appointment to speak to a doctor, 365 days a year. With consultation fees starting at $14.99, it is very affordable, even for those who do not have Medicare. Australians can use Qoctor to request services including:
- Same day online GP appointments
- Medical certificates and carer’s certificates
- Specialist referral letters
- Pathology test referrals
- Radiology/imaging referrals
- Asthma and allergy actions plans
- Prescriptions
- Bulk-billed mental health care plans
As a trusted provider, Qoctor currently partners with several large well-known Australian employers and organisations, to extend GP appointments as a benefit to their team members. All Qoctor appointments involve a real-time video call or phone call with a qualified, AHPRA registered doctor. You can read more about our partnerships here.
