Common questions

Can a GP prescribe pain medication online?

Yes. A registered GP can prescribe anti-inflammatory medications, analgesics, and other appropriate pain relief after assessment. Prescriptions are sent via SMS to you or your chosen pharmacy.

What types of pain can be treated via telehealth?

Our GPs regularly treat musculoskeletal pain, back pain, joint pain, headaches, and chronic inflammatory conditions. If your condition requires physical examination or emergency care, we will direct you accordingly.

Can I get a physiotherapy referral?

Yes. Your SwiftDoc GP can issue referrals to physiotherapists, rheumatologists, sports medicine doctors, and other allied health professionals.

Are opioid medications available online?

SwiftDoc GPs follow strict prescribing guidelines. Strong opioids are generally not prescribed via telehealth for new patients. Your GP will recommend the most appropriate treatment for your situation.
