WHO WE ARE
Clinical consultations built on listening first.
Alternative Balance is an Australian telehealth clinic offering compassionate consultations for people living with persistent health concerns that affect their daily life.
Living with a chronic condition can feel isolating. At Alternative Balance, every consultation begins with listening. Your clinician takes the time to understand your full health history, your daily challenges, and what matters most to you. Richard founded Alternative Balance because he believed there was a better way to deliver healthcare consultations: one built on listening.
Alternative Balance is a telehealth consultation clinic designed around a simple principle: every patient deserves time. Time to explain their history. Time to ask questions. Time to understand their options, whether that means a personalised management plan (if deemed medically appropriate), a referral, lifestyle guidance, ongoing monitoring, or simply a thorough clinical conversation that helps them feel seen.
Built compliance-first from day one, Alternative Balance connects Australians with AHPRA-registered practitioners via secure video consultations. The clinic exists to make compassionate, accessible healthcare consultations available to people living with persistent health concerns across the country.
"Every patient deserves a thorough assessment, a clear explanation of their options, and a clinician who walks the journey with them."
Why Alternative Balance
Compassionate consultations for Australians who deserve to be heard.
We listen before we act. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered practitioners take the time to understand your full health history, daily challenges, and what balance looks like for you — then explore every clinically appropriate option together.
What we stand for: our values
Compassion First
Every consultation begins with listening. Our clinicians take the time to understand your history, your concerns, and what matters most to you before discussing any next steps.
Clinical Integrity
Transparency runs through everything we do, from upfront pricing to honest clinical conversations. Your clinician will explain all available options, including when a management plan may not be appropriate.
Accessibility and Balance
Healthcare consultations should be available to every Australian, wherever they live. Our telehealth model removes geographic barriers so you can connect with a clinician from your living room, your regional town, or anywhere with an internet connection.
