Virtual Consultations
Need to see a clinician today?
Consider a virtual, online consult. They’re a great way to get an appointment with a clinician when your general practice team is busy or closed, or if you’re away on holiday.
You can book a virtual online consultation with a registered clinician with a New Zealand-based provider. You can find out more about virtual consultations from Health NZ.

What’s the cost?
Cost varies across providers and the arrangement they have with your general practice. Typically costs are between $20 to $100.
Need a medical certificate after hours?
If you’re too sick to work or study and need to stay at home and rest, Pocket Lab can provide you with a medical certificate, sent directly to your email. Medical Certificates | Pocket Lab
This is a great away to avoid a trip to an after hours clinic.
