Consultations
Professional guidance when you need it.
Health information can help you understand a question and prepare for a conversation with a clinician. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace professional advice.
When a question needs a professional view, consultations are with independently practising clinicians.
General Medical Consultation
For a health question when you are not sure where to start.
Specialist Consultation
When a question needs a particular field of medicine.
Not currently available.
Expert Second Opinion
Another experienced view before an important decision.
Not currently available.
Clinical advice is provided by an independently practising clinician, not by Tibacare. The clinician remains responsible for their advice, decisions, professional conduct, and scope of practice.
Consultations are not currently open for public booking through this website. Clinician, service, and market availability depends on specialty, location, professional registration, jurisdiction, pathway readiness, and clinical suitability.

For families
When your family is far away.
You send money home. You call regularly. But when someone you love becomes unwell, it can still be hard to understand what is happening, or how best to help.
Your family remains in control.
Family Access is a consent-based support model for a patient who wants a trusted family member involved in preparing for and understanding their care journey.
Information is shared with the patient’s permission. Family Access is not currently available. It is not a clinical service or a substitute for patient consent.
Support for familiesOur role
Clear about who does what.
- Tibacare
- Tibacare provides technology, coordination, governance, and operational infrastructure.
- Clinicians
- Where clinical services are offered through Tibacare, they are provided by independently practising healthcare professionals, who remain responsible for their own assessments, advice, decisions, documentation, and professional practice.
- Local care
- Remote consultation is not appropriate for every medical situation. Physical assessment, investigations, treatment, and continuing hands-on care remain with appropriate local healthcare services.
