Book consultationNo product mark-ups or commissions. Our prescribing is clinically led. Doctors receive zero commissions from product brands, so your treatment is based on what works for you, not what generates margin.
No hidden fees or lock-ins. You pay for consultations as you need them. No subscriptions, no surprise charges.
Pharmacy freedom. Fill your prescription at our recommended pharmacy or any Australian pharmacy you prefer.
Ongoing reviews. Treatment plans are reviewed regularly to keep them safe, effective, and financially sustainable.

Do a quick eligibility check, then choose a time for a telehealth consult with an AHPRA-registered doctor. You’ll receive an email with simple instructions for your appointment.
We’ll send a short, secure questionnaire so your doctor can review your history, past treatments, current medicines, and your treatment goals. Please submit before your consult.
Your doctor will call you at the appointment time. If medicinal cannabis is clinically appropriate, an electronic prescription (eScript) will be issued and sent to any Australian pharmacy you choose (or a partner pharmacy, if preferred).
No subscriptions. No hidden fees. No pressure.
Your doctor will tailor medication and dosing to your medical history, health goals, and budget.

We currently serve patients in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, Northern Territory, and ACT.

Generally, patients are eligible if they have a chronic condition lasting more than 6 months, have trialled conventional treatments without adequate relief or had side effects, and do not have a history of psychosis or schizophrenia. Check your eligibility instantly using our online questionnaire.
Book appointmentWe keep pricing clear and consistent: Initial Consultation: $89. Follow-Up Consultation: $59. No referral required. You’ll see an AHPRA-registered prescriber who can issue eScripts to any Australian pharmacy.

Medio does not sell medication; prices are set by independent dispensing pharmacies and may vary.
Book appointmentOur telehealth process is straightforward: Check your eligibility using our quick online tool. Book a telehealth appointment with an AHPRA-registered doctor. Receive your eScript electronically if medicinal cannabis is appropriate. Prescriptions can be sent to any pharmacy in Australia.
Book appointmentWe have a few recommended pharmacies that we send scripts to, but you can use any Australian pharmacy of your choosing. If your preferred pharmacy isn’t yet familiar with medicinal cannabis dispensing, we’ll forward your eScript to one of our recommended pharmacies for same-day or next-day processing.
Book appointmentEligibility checks take just a few minutes. Same-day consultations are often available, and eScripts are issued electronically after your appointment. Dispensing times depend on your chosen pharmacy — local pickup or postal delivery is available or you can have your medication delivered by one of our recommended pharmacies.
Book appointmentDriving laws across Australia differ from state to state. Only some states have changed their driving laws for medicinal cannabis users. It also depends on whether your medicine contains THC. You must never drive while impaired, and most state and territory law prohibits driving with detectable THC in your system.
Book appointmentAcross Australia, medical marijuana has been legal since 2016. Prescription medicinal cannabis is legally accessible through prescriptions from certified doctors. These doctors, having undergone specific training and registered with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), can prescribe medical cannabis for various medical conditions.
