Practice information

You are welcome to raise a concern.

Feedback can help make the work clearer, safer and more responsive. You do not need to find perfect words before getting in touch.

Start where you can

If something hasn’t felt right, you can tell me.

Whether it’s something that happened in a session, a misunderstanding, a booking issue or a concern about your privacy, you’re welcome to get in touch. You don’t need to decide whether it counts as a complaint.

You can email or call me with a brief outline and let me know how you’d prefer to talk. Please avoid sending detailed health information or records by ordinary email—we can agree on how to share those if needed. You’re welcome to have a support person with you.

I’ll listen, take your concern seriously and discuss what can happen next. You don’t have to continue working with me to raise a concern.

Independent pathway

You can also speak to someone independent.

You don’t have to contact me first. If you would rather speak to someone outside the practice, you can contact the Victorian Health Complaints Commissioner.

Make a complaint to the Health Complaints Commissioner or call 1300 582 113.

The General Code of Conduct for general health service providers explains the standards that apply to this work.

For a concern specifically about Halaxy’s handling of your personal information, use the complaint details in Halaxy’s Australian privacy policy. For a question about information held by Rachel, see the privacy page.

This is not a crisis service. Do not use email or booking notes for urgent help. In Australia, if you are in immediate danger, call 000. For crisis support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14. For mental health support, call Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636. If you are outside Australia, contact your local emergency or crisis service.
