Why is a pre-assessment required for a telehealth weight consultation?
The pre-assessment helps determine if you are suitable for medical weight loss treatments based on your current health status and medical history.
It aims to reduce the chances of going through an unnecessary consultation, which may potentially result in ineligibility for certain medical weight loss treatments.
Why is telehealth weight consultation a different cost to a general telehealth consultation?
Our Telehealth doctors have completed training in weight management and will conduct a thorough weight loss consultation via video telehealth consultation.
I didn’t get my results after completing the telehealth weight consultation pre-assessment, what can I do?
The results are sent to your mobile number at the time you provided it. If you didn't receive your results, try completing the pre-assessment again, and ensure your mobile number was entered correctly.
If the problem persists, please contact customer support on 08 6365 5190
I don’t qualify for the telehealth weight consultation. What are some other options?
TerryWhite Chemmart is here to support you with expert advice, alongside a range of nutritious weight loss products and scientifically formulated meal replacement programs to help kick-start your weight loss.

How much does the medical weight loss treatment cost?
Prices vary, so it's best to consult your doctor or pharmacist for details. While the cost may seem significant initially, consider how much an unused gym membership might add up to over time.
Investing in an effective, clinically proven treatment can save you money in the long run by delivering real, lasting results.
Can I claim on Medicare or private health insurance?
There is no Medicare rebate for this service. Each private health insurer has different policies. Check with your provider to get the most updated advice for you.
Do you deliver medications to my door?
Some medical weight loss treatments may need to be transported using cold chain shipping, which includes a risk of spoiling, delays or delivery when the recipient is not at home or able to receive their medication.
To avoid these issues, we can hold your medication safely at your local TerryWhite Chemmart pharmacy, ready for you to pick up when it suits you!
How will I know it's ready to pick up?
Our app is a simple, easy way to manage all your prescriptions at your local TerryWhite Chemmart pharmacy.
Your Pharmacist will enter your medical weight loss treatment into your active orders and you will receive an SMS at key moments, such as when it's time to re-fil a script or pick up your medication.
What if medical weight loss treatments are not suitable for me, can you still help me?
You can still achieve your weight loss goals through lifestyle changes.
Talk to your TerryWhite Chemmart Pharmacist about combining exercise and healthy eating plans with products to promote good nutrition, including protein shakes and bars and other nutritional supplements.
Are the telehealth Doctors TerryWhite Chemmart employees?
Your telehealth weight loss consultation is provided by our partner Hola Health and all Doctors are registered health practitioners registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and the Medical Board of Australia to practice as a medical practitioner.
