You’re worth the expert advice
MetLife 360Health Ask a Clinician service is just one of the many health and wellbeing support services we offer in partnership with Teladoc Health*, global leaders in providing virtual care.

Ask a GP
Ask a GP service provides you access to Australian-based General Practitioners (GPs) where you can ask your medical questions, any time, and a GP will answer your question within 24 hours. The answers are medically informed, fact based and related to your specific needs.
This service supports your treating doctor and can be used as many times as needed. They will also identify if any other 360Health services can assist with your query.
Note that you will need to visit your treating doctor for any prescriptions or referrals.
This service is not available for emergency situations. In an emergency, please contact your local emergency services (000 in Australia).
Example questions to ask a GP
"I have been hearing more about the risk of bowel cancer lately, what should I be looking out for?"
“Is skin cancer easy to spot, I have a new mole, but I don’t go in the sun much.”
“I have lost my appetite after going through a really stressful time, what should I do?”
