About Us
Launched in 2017 as Telehealth Specialists Australia Pty Ltd, Tele-Rheumatologist is proudly partnered with Newcastle Skin Medical Centre. Our goal is simple: to make specialist telehealth care faster, more affordable, and accessible to all Australians—no matter where they live.
With long public wait times and a national shortage of specialists, we’re helping close the gap by delivering trusted, specialist skin care online and on time.
We’re proud to have the most experienced telehealth team in Australia. We’ve been leading the way in virtual medical consultations since 2017—well before telehealth became standard. Our experience means you can count on care that’s reliable, evidence-based, and patient-focused.
