The benefits of telepsychiatry include greater flexibility and shorter waiting times.
To ensure your confidentiality, Anteris uses Doxy.me, a telemedicine-specific platform which uses strong encryption protocols. No special hardware or software is necessary, however a good internet connection and webcam are essential.
Anteris clincians have been using telepsychiatry for several years and have honed their skills to make the experience as much like an in-office visit as possible.
If you would like to see one of our doctors using Doxy.me, please obtain a referral from your general practitioner, psychologist or other health professional.
Please visit the following links for more information about telepsychiatry in general and Doxy.me in particular.

If there is anything that you are concerned about please visit your GP so they can organise a referral to see us at Anteris.
If it's an emergency please contact local mental health services for crisis support.
