Frequently Asked Questions
How can we help you today?

Are there any doctors consulting at HealthMint that are great with kids?
Certainly! After having multiple children ask their parents to come back to HealthMint when they need a doctor, we realised that kids find the independent doctors who are attracted to work at our clinics quite unique. That’s probably because they are all down to earth and friendly, and really engage with your little ones. After all – we want your children to grow up feeling un-afraid of visits to the doctor. The independent doctors who work at HealthMint like to think they are on a ‘high five’ basis with all of their young patients.
Are there any female GPs consulting at HealthMint?

Do the independent doctors consulting at HealthMint offer repeat referrals?
Do you require ongoing referrals to the same specialist? Did you misplace your referral? You can request a repeat referral using the ‘Quick Repeats’ function of our online booking platform. If your GP agrees that it is clinically appropriate, then they will arrange that for you. If they do not agree that it is clinically appropriate to issue it without an appointment, then you will need to book an appointment in order to arrange your referral. Please refer to our pricing page for up-to-date pricing.
To request a Quick Repeat, please use the HotDoc booking platform either through our website or the HotDoc app.
