Telehealth GP Jobs Australia

What Are Telehealth GP Jobs?

Telehealth GP jobs let you consult with patients by phone or video instead of face to face in a clinic room. The clinical work stays familiar: taking a history, reaching a diagnosis, arranging a prescription or referral. What changes is where you do it from.

A typical session might include a repeat prescription for a patient managing diabetes, a mental health check in, a paediatric fever assessment, or a specialist referral for someone in a rural community with no local GP. You are still the treating doctor. You are simply doing it from a screen rather than an exam room.

Telehealth roles suit doctors who want control over where and when they work, without giving up meaningful clinical contact with patients.

Why Choose Alecto Australia for Your Telehealth Career?

At Alecto Australia, we have built our reputation by genuinely understanding what doctors need from their careers, not just filling vacancies.

Australia Wide Reach: Our relationships span the entire country, from metropolitan telehealth providers to rural outreach programs, giving you genuine choice about who you work with.
Medical Only Focus: We speak your language. Our consultants understand clinical software, credentialing requirements, and what telehealth experience actually involves day to day.
Career Customisation: Whether you want a few sessions around existing commitments or a complete shift into remote consulting, we source roles that genuinely match your circumstances, not just the first available position.
Time Saving Efficiency: We manage the administrative burden of applications, platform onboarding, and paperwork so you can focus on clinical work and life outside it.
Fair Remuneration Advocacy: Our consultants know market rates across different telehealth providers and session types, ensuring you are compensated appropriately for your time and availability.
Relationship Based Service: You will work with the same consultant who understands your goals, preferences, and circumstances, not a different voice every call.

Who Thrives in Telehealth GP Roles?

Telehealth medicine attracts doctors with particular clinical interests and lifestyle priorities:

Flexible Lifestyle Seekers: Doctors who want to design a working week around family, further study or personal commitments, without being tied to one clinic location.

Technology Comfortable Clinicians: GPs who are happy working across video consulting platforms and digital patient records, and who communicate clearly without an in person presence.

Rural and Remote Advocates: Doctors who want to support communities without a local GP, extending care into areas that would otherwise go without regular access.

Parents and Carers: Medical professionals balancing clinical work with caring responsibilities, who need sessions that fit around school pick ups or other fixed commitments.

Chronic Disease Managers: GPs who enjoy the continuity of managing diabetes, hypertension and other ongoing conditions through regular review consultations.

Income Diversifiers: Established GPs adding sessions outside their regular practice, or locums wanting steady work between assignments.

You will need active AHPRA registration, and professional indemnity cover. A reliable internet connection and a private space for consultations are essential.

Christine AlushMelbourne

I would highly recommend Alecto for anyone considering moving to Australia.”
Dr LakhanieMelbourne

“I found you genuine, kind & highly motivated & proactive. You did your best to understand what I wanted and came up with lots of options and suggestions tailored to my liking, which helped me pick exactly what I wanted. You were also crystal clear in defining what you can adv on & what you are not comfortable advising. You were good in foreseeing the events during the paperwork stages and helped me prepare for them. You were very prompt in replying to my queries. To put it in a nutshell I was convinced you would land my dream job the very 1st time I met you in Melbourne. Thanks for your kind help.
I had a lovely experience with Alecto and was able to find the job of my dreams! Couldn’t have done it without them.”
Dr GopiQueensland

“I’m very happy that I initially contacted you to guide me through the whole process of finding and starting GP work in the Northern Territory, Australia. I experienced a very personal and informative service from everyone involved, and was guided through the process of registration step-by-step. This made the whole thing a lot less stressful and daunting. Prompt email responses, informative written material and even a welcome phone call on arrival were signs of a high class service. I would certainly recommend and use the company again. Many thanks.”
I had a lovely experience with Alecto and was able to find the job of my dreams! Couldn’t have done it without them.”
Dr NirdushanDarwin

“Working with Monique and Martina in Australia, (UK GP applying from New Zealand) made the laborious and pedantic process of applying for GP Fellowship and Australian registration much easier than trying to do this alone. It was still a long process but the team helped every step of the way, and were happy to liaise with the AMC, RACGP or AHPRA when needed.They worked hard to secure a good GP position for me, and overall I highly recommend and thank them for all their help in the process of relocating to Australia as a GP.”
Dr UrsulaBrisbane

“I would strongly recommend Alecto to GPs and other relevant health professionals contemplating a move to Australia. After having contacted at least five different agencies dealing with GPs relocating from the UK to Australia, Alecto took the top spot in terms of understanding my requirements especially with the type of position my wife and I were looking for, the workings of the Australian Health Care, the paperwork involved, Immigration requirements, adjusting to the Aussie lifestyle, etc. Their consistent help throughout the 10-12 month period prior to the move is definitely worth mentioning. They helped us settle on arrival in Australia and made our relocation process a smooth transition, especially as we had no prior local contacts. Now in Australia for a year I could not have entrusted my relocation to a better team. I would give them a 10/10 and wish them immense success in the future.”
Dr DylanPerth

“We are currently in Brisbane working, living and enjoying the ‘dream’. This road, which involved a fair amount of paperwork and lots of questions about the different applications, i.e. AMC/RACGP/AHPRA, would not have been possible without your knowledge and experience.
Martina, and particularly Lynn, were also invaluable in the whole process. To have all of you answer the numerous questions I had all the way through the application process, no matter how trivial, was incredibly helpful.
Can’t recommend the service provided high enough. Thanks to all.”
Dr SivBrisbane

“I am very grateful to Alecto who helped me secure a GP position in Melbourne.
I found their dealings very professional and it was a pleasure speaking to Martina who understood our needs perfectly and suited me with the right position.
I would highly recommend Alecto and advise all prospective GPs who are looking for a GP position in Australia to contact Alecto first and speak to Martina its director.”
Dr SyedMelbourne

“Martina and her team made looking for a new job in Melbourne an insightful process. Martina teased out my career aims, offered me appropriate options then navigated me through the process. I am now settled in my new post and still have occasion contact from the Alecto team to check up on how it is all going. Thanks!”
Dr LauraVictoria

“I just wanted to thank you for finding me the perfect job. As I had already worked in WA I had a pretty good idea of where I wanted to be in Perth. However when I applied for an advertised job you went out of your way to find another position for me exactly where I wanted to live. I am now working the hours I want in a supportive practice, close to both my home and kids’ school. It has definitely been a good move.”
Dr PennyPerth

“I enjoyed the whole experience with Alecto, engaging with Martina, how it enabled me to recognise those things that I am already doing and encouraged me to continue exploring new workplace in Melbourne. The whole service is really client focused and full of hope and they will find their best way to fulfil my criteria. Thanks Martina and Alecto!”
