We offer telehealth consultations via secure video at our virtual clinic. Telehealth is a convenient alternative to a face to face appointment for patients whose consultation does not require an in-person examination.

What to Expect During a Video Consultation
Our virtual clinic platform includes a range of features designed to make your appointment smooth and interactive:
Screen sharing – allowing you and Dr Tomlinson to review photographs and scans together in real time.
Secure document delivery – you can receive and download information during your appointment, with confirmation that documents have been successfully received.
Virtual waiting room support – Dr Tomlinson’s administrative assistant or practice nurse will greet you when you check in, assist with any practical matters, and help arrange follow-up appointments or discuss surgical fee estimates and booking information after your consultation.
Is Telehealth Right for You?
Telehealth consultations are suitable for many types of appointments, including:
Initial discussions and second opinions where a physical examination is not required
Review of imaging or photographs
Post-operative follow-up
General advice where a physical examination is not required
Dr Tomlinson reviews all requests for videoconsultations and we will advise if a videoconsultation is of lesser quality or not appropriate for your appointment, based on the information you and your referring doctor have provided. If an in-person assessment is necessary, we will advise you and arrange a face-to-face appointment.
If you wish to arrange a telehealth consultation or discuss whether it is suitable for you, please contact our practice – we are always happy to help.
You may check into the virtual clinic at any time to test your camera, microphone, and internet connection. Consultations will only take place if you have a scheduled appointment.
