04.01.2022 While the current COVID-19 pandemic continues, the multi-disciplinary team at PainMedSA are committed to continuing our services via Telehealth systems. Dr Green, Dr Vo & Dr Hollington are available for telehealth/telephone consultations and are able to expedite referrals for new patients who are isolated and vulnerable due to the COVID-19 epidemic. We will continue to deliver our service remotely as required, and will able to contact patients via video conferencing or via te...lephone. We are also continuing to see third party/compensable patients during this time. We are also particularly experienced in providing psychological assistance for those with, or concerned about, physical health conditions/symptoms. With the recent systemic job losses in the community, the potential fallout from a mental health perspective can be detrimental. Consultation with one of our psychologists who is easily accessible can help alleviate these concerns, and generate ways to cope with the state of the world. For those patients that are particularly vulnerable, we are able to appoint these patients in conjunction with a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan. If you require further information, email us at [email protected] or speak with your GP for a referral.

We appreciate everyone’s patience during this time.
