Doctor – Telehealth
Remote | Australia-wide | Flexible Sessions | $170–$260+ per clinical hour
Looking for a flexible doctor role with excellent earning potential and genuine clinical autonomy?
Cannabis Doctors Tasmania (CDT)
is a doctor-led, independent telehealth clinic specialising in medicinal cannabis consultations for patients with chronic and complex health conditions.
We are looking for doctors who want to build a flexible telehealth practice around their existing commitments — whether that's one session a week, several sessions, or a substantial part-time workload.
No commute.
No Medicare billing.
No practice overheads.
No corporate KPIs.
No pressure to prescribe particular products.
Just clinical medicine, supported by an experienced administrative team.
Why doctors join us
$170–$260+ per clinical hour
, depending on appointment mix
Work entirely from home, anywhere in Australia
Choose the days and hours you work
No fixed roster — take time off whenever you need it
Strong and growing patient demand
Dedicated administration team handling the operational workload
No Medicare billing or bulk-billing requirements
Complete clinical autonomy
Comprehensive training provided —
no previous medicinal cannabis experience required
Ongoing clinical mentoring and peer support
No financial relationships with pharmacies, manufacturers or product suppliers
An unusually independent model
CDT is funded entirely through consultation fees.
We do
not
receive commissions, rebates, incentives or other financial perks from pharmacies, medicinal cannabis companies or product manufacturers.
Doctors are therefore free to recommend treatment based solely on the patient's clinical circumstances, preferences and budget.
Patients are also free to use the pharmacy of their choice.
We believe this independence is important — both ethically and clinically.
Flexible work that fits around your life
Appointments can be offered between
8:00 am and 10:00 pm, seven days a week
.
You choose when you work.




The role can suit doctors who want to:
supplement an existing income
work remotely around family commitments
combine telehealth with another clinical role
reduce their face-to-face workload
build a substantial telehealth practice
transition towards greater flexibility without giving up clinical work
Patient demand is strong, and doctors can generally establish a busy appointment book relatively quickly.
Earning potential
Doctors are paid on a percentage-of-billings model.
Current consultation fees:
Initial consultation – 30 minutes:
$139
Follow-up consultation – 15 minutes:
$99
Indicative doctor earnings are approximately:
Initial consultations:
$166–$181+ per clinical hour
Follow-up consultations:
$238–$257+ per clinical hour
As your patient base develops, follow-up consultations generally make up an increasing proportion of your workload.
Actual earnings depend on appointment mix, availability and clinical workflow, with experienced clinicians potentially earning above these indicative ranges.
What you'll be doing
You will provide telehealth consultations for patients with chronic and complex medical conditions who have not achieved adequate symptom control with conventional treatment.
Your role will include:
comprehensive clinical assessment
reviewing previous investigations and treatment
assessing suitability for medicinal cannabis
developing individualised treatment plans
monitoring treatment response and adverse effects
reviewing treatment outcomes over time
communicating with the patient's regular GP and other healthcare providers
maintaining appropriate clinical documentation and prescribing practices




Our administrative team manages appointment scheduling, patient communication, prescription processing and day-to-day logistics, allowing you to focus on the clinical consultation.
Our approach to clinical care
We support doctors to practise according to
evidence, clinical judgement and current regulatory requirements
.
Our model includes:
independent, brand-neutral prescribing
patient choice regarding dispensing pharmacy
detailed written consultation summaries
routine communication with the patient's regular GP
clinically appropriate and cost-conscious treatment
structured follow-up
routine outcome monitoring
collaborative care with the patient's broader healthcare team
We encourage thoughtful, individualised prescribing rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
You don't need medicinal cannabis experience
Previous medicinal cannabis prescribing experience is not required.
We provide comprehensive onboarding, education and ongoing clinical mentoring to help you become confident in this area of medicine.
We're looking for doctors with:
current AHPRA registration
at least three years' clinical experience
strong communication and consultation skills
confidence providing care via telehealth
an interest in chronic disease and patients with complex health needs
a professional, patient-centred approach to clinical care
If you're an experienced doctor who is curious about medicinal cannabis but has never prescribed it before,
we'd be very happy to hear from you.
