We offer different types of telehealth appointments
Video telehealth appointment
Telehealth is often done via telephone and this can be challenging for some as people with hearing loss who rely on visual cues and lip reading to help support their hearing. We prefer to use video telehealth appointments for this reason. Video appointments do not require downloading a software or mobile application and can be accessed from any device with a camera.

Over the phone
Some of our clients may not have access to a smartphone or have reliable internet connection. Some also just prefer telephone appointments and that is fine too! Simply request for a phone appointment when booking in your telehealth appointment.
Through our Hearing Australia App
Receive real time, remote care adjustments and support via our Hearing Australia app between 9AM and 5PM weekdays. One of our audiologists will be able to remotely adjust your hearing aids to suit your needs. Find out more about the app or download here.
