When to Opt For After Hours Doctor In Adelaide
While our after-hours GPs are fully qualified and AHPRA-accredited, we only provide non-emergency medical services. If you’re experiencing serious symptoms such as severe bleeding or difficulty breathing, it’s essential to seek immediate assistance at your nearest emergency department.
Our After-hours services are suitable for:
- Non-Life-Threatening Conditions: If you’re dealing with something like a persistent cold, a minor sprain, or a manageable asthma flare-up, our after-hours doctor is well-equipped to assist.
- Medication Needs: Need a prescription refill or new medication outside normal GP hours? Our online doctors can provide the prescriptions you need, anytime.
- Complementing Regular GP Care: When your regular GP is unavailable and your health issue isn’t an emergency, our after-hours doctors ensure you receive continuous care.
- Avoiding Emergency Room Waits: Emergency rooms can have long waits and lengthy triage processes. For less severe concerns, an after-hours doctor can provide quicker medical attention.
- Non-emergency Requests: For urgent but non-emergency needs like pathology or radiology requests, after-hours doctors can provide the necessary referrals and guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
After-hours doctors provide telehealth consultation. Meaning, all interactions with the doctor and the patient are done online through video calls and the Instant Consult app. Home visit doctors, on the other hand, go on house calls to provide physical face-to-face consultations.
While both provide medical care outside of standard clinic hours, Instant Consult after-hours services offer a faster and more convenient option. It’s ideal if your condition can be addressed without a physical consultation.
Our aim is to deliver top-quality medical care to you as quickly as possible. To achieve this, we connect you with the first available doctor on our platform. Rest assured, all our after-hours doctors are Australian-registered, AHPRA-accredited, meticulously screened, and dedicated to providing you with the outstanding medical care you deserve.
Our doctors can only provide initial advice for mental health concerns, not mental health treatment plans. They can, however, provide a referral to a mental health specialist so you can get the targeted care you need.
Absolutely! Our medical services are available to everyone, whether you’re a tourist or a local.
While they can provide immediate care and advice, our after-hours doctors do not offer ongoing treatment. We recommend follow-up consultations with your regular GP for continuous care.
