Better hotel doctor care
Shorter waiting times
Our waiting times are significantly less on average than other hotel doctor services in Perth, due to an increased ratio of doctors to patients. We provide guests with an estimated arrival time within 30 mins of booking and provide updates about any unexpected delays.
Medications
Our doctors carry a large selection of medications. Guests do not have to attend a local pharmacy to get their treatment started. Instead they can rest and start their recovery in the comfort of their hotel room.
Translators
Our doctors have access to translators to help with consultations for patients that do not speak fluent English. Please let our receptionist know at booking if a translator will be required.
Doctor triage
It is common for hotel guests to be referred to the hospital when they become unwell as hotel staff are concerned about a delay in treating an urgent medical problem, or are concerned that a call out doctor will take too long to attend. However, even if they need urgent GP care most guests that are unwell do not need to be reviewed in the hospital and an unnecessary trip can be stressful and time consuming.
To solve this problem, our doctors will call guests within 30 minutes of booking (or straight away if there are any immediate clinical concerns) to discuss their condition and to offer initial treatment advice. If our doctor determines that the guest requires a hospital review, they will inform the guest and advise which hospital they should attend.
