The Dokotela approach
Care, community and collaboration are at the heart of how we do things. We've brought together a diverse group of experienced specialists who work in collaboration with our dedicated support team to deliver tailored care to our patients. Because there's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health.
As a leading telehealth provider, we’re on a mission to solve inequality in mental healthcare. Our specialists and dedicated support team work closely with GPs and PHNs to ensure we’re continually improving access to quality mental healthcare and always putting our patients first.

Breaking down barriers
We have delivered essential mental healthcare to thousands of Australians, particularly those in underserved rural and regional areas, who otherwise would struggle to get the help they need. We offer our patients a clinical care team who provide support and technical assistance, plus the benefits of tele-health which eliminates the need for travel, reduces costs and connects top-tier specialists with patients across the country.
A community that cares
At Dokotela, we're more than just healthcare professionals – we're a community of caring individuals dedicated to supporting your mental health journey. Our diverse team brings together warmth, expertise, and a genuine passion for helping others, creating an environment where you'll feel understood and supported every step of the way. We work together seamlessly to provide you with the personalised care you deserve.

Our story
"We saw a huge gap in mental health care accessibility, especially in rural areas. It was time to make a change."
Our journey began in 2017 when Dr. Zelko began offering telehealth to remote parts of Australia. Anita (his daughter), witnessing the stark inequality in mental healthcare accessibility and the commitment of GPs in those areas to assist their patients, Anita felt compelled to act and make this service available to all Australians.
Meet the founders
Dokotela was born out of a passion for changing the narrative around mental health and addressing the severe shortage of psychiatrists in Australia. Our collaborative care model allows psychiatrists to work together with GP’s, nurse practitioners and other clinicians. This means significantly shorter wait times and better outcomes for the patient. Dokotela is our way of extending a helping hand to as many people as possible, irrespective of their location.
