The Process

How Alternative Medicine Consultations Work at HolisticChem

Our process is designed to be straightforward, private, and fully manageable online from anywhere in Australia.

Complete Pre-Screening

Fill in the online pre-screening checklist at holisticahealth.com.au. This gives our GPs the clinical context they need before your consultation.

GP Consultation

A registered GP assesses your clinical history, current medications, and treatment goals. Our multi-doctor model means you are not tied to a single prescriber.

Prescription Issued

If clinically appropriate, your GP issues a prescription. All prescriptions comply with TGA regulations and the Drugs, Poisons and Controlled Substances Act 1981 (Vic).

Dispensed and Delivered

Your prescription is filled through our online dispensary and delivered Australia-wide via Australia Post Express, or collected in person at our Bayswater clinic.

Online and In-Clinic Consultations

Consultations are available via our telehealth platform for patients anywhere in Australia, or in person at our Bayswater clinic. Our GPs provide personalised, judgement-free assessments covering dosage, potential side effects, and the regulatory context for alternative medicine in Australia.

Patients who have had the same product prescribed within the last 12 months at our clinic may request repeat e-scripts online. Up to 2 repeats can be requested per online submission. For additional repeats beyond this limit, a GP consultation is required. To request a repeat e-script, email our team.

Broader Expertise

Different GPs in our team bring focus areas including pain management, anxiety, and sleep, ensuring you get the most relevant clinical guidance.
