Why You Might Need to See a GP Over the Holidays.

The festive period often comes with unexpected health concerns. Whether it’s due to a minor illness, injury, or needing routine healthcare, Our Sage Telehealth is here to help. Some common reasons you might need to see a GP during Christmas and New Year include:

• Unexpected Illness: Seasonal colds, flu, or food poisoning can put a damper on your celebrations.

• Medication Needs: If you’ve run out of regular prescriptions or need a new script.

• Minor Injuries: Burns, cuts, or sprains are common during holiday cooking and celebrations.

• Medical Certificates: Whether you’re unwell for work or unable to travel, a medical certificate may be required.

• Referrals: If you need specialist care or further testing but can’t access your regular GP.

No matter the reason, Our Sage Telehealth makes it easy to speak with a qualified Australian doctor from the comfort of your home, 7am to 11pm AEST every day, including public holidays.
