How Qoctor works – specialist referral letters
If this is your first time to use an online doctor, here’s how to get a specialist referral letter from Qoctor:
(1) Go to the referrals page and select the type of referral letter you need:
- a repeat specialist referral letter if returning to see a specialist you’ve seen in the past
- a “change of specialist” letter if you already have a referral letter to see a specialist but need it changed to a different specialist within the same specialty (eg due to a shorter waiting time)
- new specialist referral letters are available for a limited range of issues including referral a dermatologist for acne management and to a sleep specialist for investigation of possible sleep apnoea.
(2) complete a form which gives the online doctor key information about your health. You will also be asked for the details of your usual GP, so your specialist can keep them in the loop.
(3) Once you have completed the online assessment and paid ($24.99), you will receive an email containing a link to your referral letter. Or you can log in to your account on the Qoctor website at any time and download it. The letter will be in PDF format, so you can print it, or email it to your specialist.
