Gladstone by telehealth

48,505 people lived in the Gladstone urban area at 30 June 2025 on the ABS's preliminary estimate, an increase of 2,751 people since 2021. Gladstone is a port city on the central Queensland coast, south-east of Rockhampton. Patients there see a LeafLine Clinician by video or telephone, from home, from work, or from anywhere with reception.

Gladstone sits about 530 kilometres by road from Brisbane, around 7 hours behind the wheel. An in-person appointment in Brisbane would usually mean staying overnight.

The QLD rules for a patient in Gladstone

The Medicines and Poisons Act 2019 (Qld) puts its weight on monitoring rather than approvals. There is no Queensland approval for an adult in this kind of care, so the federal application is the one your Clinician makes.

Section 41 of the Medicines and Poisons Act 2019 (Qld) requires the prescriber to check QScript before every monitored prescription, and your Clinician records the result in your file.

The federal side is the same everywhere. Our guide to getting a prescription through SAS-B explains the TGA approval, and if you are moving from another clinic, the Queensland changing-clinics page covers what transfers and what does not.

How a consultation works from Gladstone

  1. Check your eligibility

    The eligibility questionnaire is confidential and comes before any booking or payment. LeafLine Clinic consults with adults only, aged 18 and over.

  2. Book video or telephone

    Video works on a phone, tablet or computer. Where the connection is unreliable, a telephone consultation needs nothing more than reception, which makes it a workable option anywhere around Gladstone. Support and bookings run 9am to 7pm local time, year round.

  3. What to have ready

    Before the call, write down the medications you take and their doses, and gather any recent results or specialist letters. Your Clinician also confirms your Medicare details and home address. Pick a spot where nobody can overhear you.

  4. After the consultation

    If your Clinician decides a treatment is appropriate, they apply for the approvals it needs in their own name: the TGA's Special Access Scheme Category B approval where the medicine is not on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, plus any QLD approval described above. Nothing is prescribed until those are granted. Reviews afterwards run by video or telephone in the same way.

Gladstone's Primary Health Network

Gladstone falls within Central Queensland, Wide Bay, Sunshine Coast PHN. Primary Health Networks are independent organisations funded by the Australian Government to plan and commission primary health care in their regions. They do not hold consultations themselves, and LeafLine Clinic is not part of, funded by or endorsed by any of them.

A PHN's website is a sensible place to look for the GPs, pharmacies and community services in your area, which matter alongside any telehealth care.
