Who we are

DRS4DRS TAS is a free, confidential service for all doctors and medical students who have concerns about their health and wellbeing such as stress, mental health problems, substance use issues, or any other health issue. Sensitive to the needs of doctors and medical students, we are a non-judgmental service dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of those within the profession.

24/7 help line

We offer a telephone help line, providing independent and confidential advice for registered medical practitioners and medical students in Tasmania. Advice is also provided to anyone who is concerned about a doctor or medical student. This includes family, friends, colleagues, university staff and clinical staff.

Finding the support you need

We are here to help you find the support you need – whether it be referrals to specialist practitioners, online resources, or other services. We handle calls relating to stress and mental illness, drug and alcohol problems and relationship and other personal issues. No problem is too trivial or too serious.

Events and networking

We host and promote a range of events and networking opportunities designed to bring doctors and medical students together. Whether it is a wellbeing-focused session, a guest speaker evening, or a chance to socialise, these events offer a valuable opportunity to connect with others across the profession, share experiences, and build lasting professional relationships.
