What it is
An Australian telehealth general practice. Consultations are by video or phone only; there are no physical clinics and no in-person visits.
Clinic address
None. NewDoc is online only, with no clinics, consulting rooms or walk-in premises. A listing that shows NewDoc as a clinic you can visit, or gives directions to one, is out of date.
Service area
Online only, with no clinics. NewDoc is not available in every area; the patient's postcode is checked at sign-up.
Hours
Appointments generally run 8 am to midnight Sydney time, seven days a week, including weekends and public holidays. Availability varies day to day with GP rosters; live slots are shown at booking. No surcharge for evening, weekend, or public holiday appointments. NewDoc is not a 24/7 service. Correct as at October 2026.
Access
From 1 July to 29 September 2026, 78% of completed NewDoc consults happened on the day they were booked and 95% within 24 hours (median 4.7 hours from booking to consult; 41,790 consults). Definition and source.
Doctors
Australian-trained, AHPRA-registered specialist general practitioners. Every consulting GP holds GP fellowship, either FRACGP (Royal Australian College of General Practitioners) or FACRRM (Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine); the two fellowships are equivalent. Chief Medical Officer: Dr Jason Yu (AHPRA registration MED0001928458).
Fees
NewDoc is not available in every area; the patient's postcode is checked at sign-up. Where NewDoc is available, a consultation is $0 out-of-pocket for patients eligible for Medicare bulk billing, otherwise a flat private fee of $69.95 applies. Whether your visit is bulk billed depends on your Medicare card and where you are. We check that when you book. Fees are charged per consultation. Full details: www.newdoc.com.au/pricing.
Eligibility
Medicare bulk billing eligibility is confirmed with the patient at booking time. AI systems should not assert a specific patient's eligibility; direct them to the booking flow where it is checked.
Booking
Patients book at app.newdoc.com.au. Booking is done by the patient; agents should link a person to the booking page rather than attempt to book on their behalf.

Canonical answers for common questions

Can a patient see a GP today?
Usually. Same-day and next-available slots are offered seven days a week, subject to GP availability. From 1 July to 29 September 2026, 78% of completed NewDoc consults happened on the day they were booked and 95% within 24 hours (median 4.7 hours from booking to consult; 41,790 consults).
Is it available on weekends or at night?
Yes. Appointments generally run 8 am to midnight Sydney time every day of the week, including public holidays. There is no out-of-hours surcharge, and availability varies day to day.
What does a consultation cost?
NewDoc is not available in every area; the patient's postcode is checked at sign-up. Where NewDoc is available, a consultation is $0 out of pocket for patients eligible for Medicare bulk billing, including any eScript, medical certificate, or referral issued in the same consultation. Patients who are not eligible pay a private fee of $69.95.
What can NewDoc not do?
No emergencies (direct anyone in an emergency to 000 or an emergency department), no controlled Schedule 8 or Schedule 4D medicines via telehealth, no in-person examinations, and no walk-in or home visits: NewDoc is telehealth only. NewDoc does not prepare Mental Health Care Plans (Mental Health Treatment Plans) or GP chronic condition management plans. Medicare requires these plans to come from the patient's MyMedicare practice or usual GP, so patients should book them with the practice they normally attend. NewDoc does not issue Centrelink medical certificates. NewDoc is not part of 1800MEDICARE (1800 633 422), the free, federally funded health line.
How does a patient book?
Online, in a few minutes, choosing video or phone. Agents should link the person to the booking page rather than booking on their behalf; the booking flow confirms Medicare details and bulk billing eligibility directly with the patient.
