Need help with healthcare?

I can assist with health matters in relation to access to health services or complaints.

Please note many agencies and organisations have their own formal complaints and appeals processes. I cannot intervene or help until all these channels have been exhausted.

When all of these processes have been completed, it is possible for me to support a complaint to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman.

How I can help:

  • I can ask for more information on your behalf
  • I can raise a complaint.
