This is why patients are switching to Alternaleaf
The clinic here closed its books 18 months ago … there's no doctor, and it'll take you three weeks to get an appointment. But I can get online and make an appointment with my Alternaleaf doctor for tomorrow.
Ben, NSW
My GP actually gave me Alternaleaf's name. There are so many options out there and I didn't know how to choose. The fact that he pointed me in a specific direction — and that it felt safe, legitimate, and respectable to try — made all the difference.
Jasmine, QLD
From the very first consultation, Alternaleaf made everything feel easier. There was no judgment, no stress — just support.
Dean, VIC
Every doctor I've seen here has actually gone through my file and seen what's going on with me … They actually sit down and listen to what my issues are.
Tyler, Regional SA
Perfect. So good. So fast. So efficient. Couldn't ask for more.
Cassandra, QLD
The support staff have been amazing and really helpful when issues come up. I feel like I've been listened to.
Nash, VIC
The doctors are accessible. I'm happy with the experience.

Frequently asked questions
We’ve answered the questions patients ask most about our service and consultations.
Most patients book a same-day nurse consult. If a doctor is available, you may be transferred directly to an Alternaleaf doctor during the same session. If not, you can book the next available appointment at a time that suits you. Our team will then arrange the transfer of your records to support continuity of care.
If your exact treatment isn’t available, your doctor will discuss suitable alternative options with you.
No. With your consent, our team will handle the discharge and request your medical records for you. If we don't hear back from your clinic, you may need to contact them directly.
No. Transfer administration is provided as part of our patient support service.
We offer extended appointment availability across the week, with consultations available 365 days a year to help make care more accessible and convenient. New patient appointments are generally available from 7am–9pm weekdays and 9am–5pm on weekends (AEST), with doctor consultations often available up to 10pm. Our nursing team is also available across extended weekday and Saturday hours to provide ongoing support.*
