In this episode, Dr Sean Stevens hosts a discussion on the topic of public hospital virtual clinics with three distinguished guests: Dr Morgan Rayner, a new fellow GP, Associate Professor Joanna Lawrence, a paediatrician at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne and Director of the Victorian Virtual Specialist Clinic (VVSC), and Dr Dominic Mallon, an immunologist at Fiona Stanley in Perth and founder of the Virtual Immunology Clinic.

They explore the origins, purposes, and operational models of the Victorian Virtual Specialist Clinic and the Virtual Immunology Clinic. Associate Professor Joanna Lawrence discusses how the VVSC was established to enable GPs to access specialist expertise more swiftly, to reduce wait times for patients and enhance the ability of community physicians to manage patient care efficiently. Dr Dominic Mallon shares insights into the Virtual Immunology Clinic, how it has successfully reduced patient wait times and facilitated timely access to specialist care, especially in rural areas.

Dr Morgan Rayner also provides a first-hand account of using virtual consult services as a junior registrar, discussing the benefits of building relationships with specialists and improving patient care through timely consultations.

The VVSC is available to any GP working in Victoria. The collab-consult model is a free 20-minute case conference with a specialist (with or without the patient). The collab-consult enables GPs to access timely expert advice to support managing their patients in the community. CPD can be claimed for participating in a case conference. Booking is easy through https://vvsc.org.au/ or email [email protected].

The Virtual Immunology Clinic is available to any GP in WA who is in or very near the Fiona Stanley Hospital Catchment area for public hospital outpatients services (South Metro, South West, Great Southern)
