Need an after hours GP clinic when your regular option is closed? For many people, after hours conditions can’t wait until the next day and finding out-of-hours medical care becomes a top priority.
At 13SICK, we have an alternative for you.
We revolutionise urgent after hours care by bringing it directly to your home. Whether it’s a sudden fever in the middle of the night or an unexpected injury on a public holiday, our experienced Doctors are ready to provide quality care at home – complete with home Doctor bulk billing – so you won’t need to travel to an after hours clinic or worry about out-of-pocket costs.
Are you looking for an alternative to an after hours GP clinic? Sending a booking request with 13SICK is straightforward and begins with selecting your symptoms. To ensure tailored care from your after hours Doctor visit, choose from categories like respiratory issues, musculoskeletal problems and more.
With 13SICK, you’ll find it easier to convey what’s troubling you without navigating through medical jargon or unnecessary steps.
It’s important to share how long you’ve been experiencing your symptoms and how severe they are. This information helps Doctors prepare in advance and offers you a more focused consultation. Knowing specifics can help the Doctor in charge of your medical care home visit prioritise your needs appropriately and reduce follow-up questions that can be addressed upfront.
With 13SICK’s licenced Doctors, you won’t need to seek an after hours medical clinic. Just keep in mind that we cannot guarantee a prescription, medical certificate, Carer’s certificate or referral, as these depend on the Doctor’s discretion and your particular needs during the session.
For those holding a Medicare or Gold DVA card, 13SICK offers the convenience of bulk billing Doctors after hours services as an alternative to after hours GP clinics that might require upfront payments. With us, you don’t have to worry about finances. Just fill out the online form or provide your Medicare or Gold DVA card details when booking by phone to proceed.
Registering your details enables you to access a home visit or telehealth consultation tailored to your needs instead of spending time looking for an open after hours GP clinic near you. Once you’ve inputted your necessary personal and medical information, your real-time request will be submitted.
You’ll then receive an estimated wait time. The wait time will depend on the season, peaks in demand and other factors, but we are constantly upgrading our systems to minimise wait times.
If you or a loved one needs GP after hours access but has mobility issues, don’t worry – our network of licenced Australian Doctors is an alternative you can turn to.

Depending on your consultation, the Doctor may provide medical certificates, Carer’s certificates, ePrescriptions or referrals as required. While these services can save you additional trips or efforts, please note that these cannot be guaranteed and are only provided when your after hours telehealth or after hours home Dr deems it necessary.
