Here’s what to expect
during a Hazel consultation
Your consultation is built around understanding you, not just your symptoms.
Together, you'll talk through what's been going on: your health history, the lifestyle factors at play, and the kind of care you're actually looking for.
By the end of your appointment, you'll have a clearer understanding of what's happening in your body, and a real plan for what comes next.

Here’s how a Hazel consultation works
Before your appointment
Once you've booked, you'll get a confirmation and access to your Hazel patient platform.
From there, we'd like to get to know you a little: you'll be prompted to provide your health history, what's been going on, and anything else you think we should see, like previous results or scans. This helps your Hazel doctor build a picture before you meet, so you can spend the appointment talking, not catching them up.
You don't need to have everything sorted. Just share what feels relevant. We'll guide you through the rest.
During your appointment
Your Hazel clinician will lead the conversation, listening, asking the right questions, and pulling together a picture of what might be going on.
This will be a supportive, judgement-free environment where there's space to talk through everything you want to cover, without rushing.
Hazel doctors take an evidence-based, individualised approach, which may include medical, lifestyle or holistic support depending on what's right for you.
Types of questions we may ask you
When your symptoms started and how they've changed
Your cycle, hormones or relevant health history
Any previous diagnoses, testing, treatments or care experiences
How symptoms are showing up in your daily life
Your treatment preferences, whether that's natural, conventional, or a mix of both
What kind of support or next steps you're hoping for
After your appointment
You'll come away with a clear plan built around your symptoms, your goals, and what you actually want from your care.
Depending on what's needed, that might include treatment, testing, referrals, lifestyle support, or further investigation.
Your care doesn’t stop there
Your care at Hazel is built around continuity.
You can keep seeing the same Hazel GP across follow-ups, with your plan adjusting as things shift.

Frequently asked questions
What if I don’t have a diagnosis yet?
Honestly, that's why Hazel exists. So many women arrive here without a diagnosis, or after years of being dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their symptoms are "just part of being a woman" Some are looking for a second opinion. Some are starting from scratch. Wherever you are, your Hazel doctor will take your symptoms seriously and help you work out what's actually going on.
Do I need a referral to book?
No referral needed. You can book any appointment directly through Hazel, online, whenever it suits you.
What kind of treatment does Hazel offer?
Hazel offers the full range of evidence-based women's health treatment, which may include prescription medication, supplements, lifestyle changes, holistic approaches, referrals or further investigation. What matters as much as the clinical picture is what you want. Some women want to try lifestyle changes first. Some want to avoid pharmacological treatment altogether. Some want medication on the table from day one. Your care plan reflects what's clinically right and what feels right to you.
Is Hazel virtual only?
Hazel is virtual first, not virtual only. Most of your care happens online, so you can see your clinician from wherever you are: home, work, on the road, in between school pick-ups. When something needs to happen in person, like a physical exam, scan, blood test or procedure, your Hazel doctor will refer you into our trusted network of in-person services nationwide.
Can I access Hazel if I live in a regional or remote area?
Yes. Hazel works Australia-wide. Whether you're in a capital city, a regional town or somewhere genuinely remote, you can see a women's health doctor without the wait list or the four-hour drive.
Are appointments private and confidential?
Always. Your symptoms, your history, the questions you've never asked anyone: all of it stays between you and your Hazel doctor. Consultations are held on a secure platform, and protected by Australian privacy and clinical confidentiality laws.
Can Hazel support complex or overlapping symptoms?
Yes, and we'd argue it's where we do our best work. Hormones, pelvic health, mood, energy, sleep, gut: it's all connected, and your Hazel doctor will treat it that way. You won't have to repeat your story across appointments or convince anyone the symptoms are related.
Can I access different types of specialists through Hazel?
Yes, and this is one of the things we're proudest of. Hazel has a full in-house team of women's health clinicians: GPs, gynaecologists, psychologists, naturopaths, sexologists and dietitians, all collaborating on your care under one roof. Beyond our team, we have a referral network of trusted in-person services and specialists nationwide, so your care can extend wherever you need it to go.
Will I keep seeing the same clinician?
Where possible, yes. Continuity matters, and follow-ups are designed so you can keep seeing the same doctor over time. That said, all of our doctors are trained in the same evidence-based approach to women's health, and your notes follow you across the team, so any of our doctors can pick up your care where it left off. If your needs involve other specialists in our network, the same applies. You won't be starting from scratch or repeating your story.
When isn't Hazel the right place for care?
Hazel is a specialist women's health clinic, so we're not built for everything. We're not the right place for:
Emergencies, please call 000 or visit your nearest emergency department
Urgent in-person care, your GP or an after-hours clinic is the right call
Acute illnesses outside women's health, like colds, flu or general infections, where your regular GP or a general telehealth is better suited.
Script-only or medical certificate requests without a consultation
If you're not sure whether Hazel fits, our care team can help, just get in touch.
Will Hazel replace my GP?
No. Hazel is a specialist women's health service that works in conjunction with your GP, not in place of them. Your GP looks after the full picture of your health; Hazel focuses specifically on the women's health concerns that benefit from dedicated time and expertise. With your permission, we can share notes with your GP so your care stays connected.
