CONFIDENTIALITY - Anything you discuss with a health professional is confidential; no one else receives any details about your discussions without your permission.

Health

NorthTec partners with PocketLab to provide a range of remote services including express consults, urgent prescriptions, lab tests, medical certificates, referrals to private specialists and sexual health services.

This is a pay-for-use service with a provider which will generally be able to give appointments within 24 hours, and is available seven days a week from 8.30am to 10pm.

This service is new for 2025. More details coming soon.
