One number. 24/7. Doctor to doctor.

The National Doctors’ Health Line – 1800 006 888 – connects you to another doctor who understands the pressures of medicine, any time day or night.

With relocations a part of medical training and practice, this single national number makes support easy to reach. Each call is directed to the established doctors’ health service in your area – for confidential support from an experienced peer.

Help share this number, so no doctor feels alone.
