Scheduling a Review

We now have a new online service to assist patients in scheduling their next consultation with Dr Theodoratos. We ask that all patients schedule a standard review or medication review appointment through HealthEngine via our website, emmeco.com.au.

Alternatively, patients may also phone our rooms on (07) 3193 3381 to speak with our administration team.

Can I Schedule a Telehealth Phone Appointment?

Unfortunately, Dr Theodoratos does not offer telephone consultations at this time.  We apologise for any inconvenience.

How often do I need to undergo medication reviews for ADHD treatment?

Initially, monthly medication reviews are standard to fine-tune the dosage and assess your response.

Once the optimal dose is established, reviews may transition to three-month intervals, followed by

six-month and eventually 12-month intervals as stability is achieved.

GP Correspondence

Following most consultations, Dr Theodoratos will send an updated letter of correspondence to your GP to maintain consistency in your collaborative care.  You will also receive a copy unless you have advised you do not wish this to occur.

Reports & Letter Requests

The practice reserves the right to deny providing reports, including medico-legal reports. If you require a report for NDIS/other purposes, please request a copy of our current Fee Structure from administration and schedule a review consultation through HealthEngine via our website, emmeco.com.au. If you require a Referral, Travel Letter, letter or medical certificate, please also schedule a review consultation.

Reports and letters are not written during consultation and, therefore, incur separate fees. The fees associated with writing reports and letters also include the time taken by the doctor to read supplied material in order to generate a comprehensive and relevant report on a patients behalf.

I am a Current Patient, Can My Family Also See Dr Theodoratos?

Dr Theodoratos does not typically recommend that family members of current patients also attend the practice at the same time.  This is due to a myriad of reasons but most importantly as it can present a conflict of interest throughout treatment of all parties involved.  

If you are a current patient and would like to make an enquiry with Dr Theodoratos regarding the potential treatment of any of your direct family members, please do so during your next review consultation.  

Prescription & Treatment Recommendations for Out-Of-State Patients

We appreciate your commitment to maintaining your mental health and would like to inform you about our prescription policies for patients residing outside of Queensland.

Doctor prescribing must follow State Health Department requirements, therefore, Dr Theodoratos can only prescribe medication to patients residing in Queensland at this time.  This means that while Dr Theodoratos is unable to directly prescribe medications for patients residing outside of the state, we are committed to ensuring continuity of care.

To address this, Dr Theodoratos is available to provide comprehensive treatment recommendations.  These recommendations will be tailored to your specific needs and will be forwarded to your local General Practitioner [GP].  Your GP, will be required to participate in shared-prescribing and obtain authorisation from the relevant State Health Department to prescribe your ADHD medication.  This will likely require two visits to your GP - one to obtain the approval, then another to obtain the prescription.
