Ask a GP

Have your questions answered within 24 hours by a GP

Do you want to know more about a symptom or medical issue? Do you want to know where to go or what to do next? Ask a GP is here to help.

Ask a GP provides access to Australian General Practitioners (GPs) for quick questions, or if you’re not sure whether to visit your treating GP. You can ask your medical questions any time and one of our GP’s will respond in writing within 24 hours. The service can be used as many times as needed.

This is not an emergency service. If you are feeling unwell we advise you to contact your local emergency services (000 in Australia).

“What are the best ways to lower my blood pressure naturally?”
“How long does the flu last?”
“What can I do to stop snoring?”

Ask a GP supports your treating doctor. It does not aim to replace them. If you require prescriptions or referrals you will need to visit your treating doctor.

Our GPs also help to identify if any of our other services can assist you to help manage any other medical concerns.
