Caller: Top Health Doctors

It's the appointment scheduler for Top Health Doctors in Brisbane. All ok, I did have dealings with them.

A reminder for a doctor's appointment in Brisbane when I live in Victoria, Yeh, I don't think so.

Caller: Hot Doc

Message about a Dr appointment. Legit number

Caller: I don’t know

Scam text. Quote:
Punchbowl Family Health Care needs you to fill out a New Patient Registration Form before you attend your appointment https//.hotdoc.com/gx37kt8lp Unquote..
I don’t live in NSW. I just wish these morons would disappear! Time wasters. Scammers. I Deleted and Reported Spam to Telstra and Apple.

Caller: Hotdoc

I literally made a doctors appointment with my doctor for tomorrow. I got this as a txt to confirm the very appointment I made
I think it's a service all doctors use to onfirm appointments etc as I've also had a txt from an old doctors surgery I used to attend

Caller: HotDoc

Message sent to my mobile and to my email reminding me of my doctor’s appointment tomorrow and asking permission for Medicare to pay today’s doctor’s appointment. Talked to doctor’s secretary who confirmed that they did contact me by phone and email, so I consider this number to be totally legitimate.

Caller: This is general practice

Is a pretend number this practices uses to connect with hotdog sms services not lagit

Caller: HotDoc

HotDoc sms service for healthcare providers , mobile# just a cover

Received a text stating:

We are delighted to announce Dr Jonathon Forrester is back at St John Cockburn!
Special interests are Men's health, Elderly care, Skin cancer checks & Chronic Disease Management.
Book an appt online https://bit.ly/3xXxUPD or call 6174 6000 for further info
(Pls do not reply to this SMS)

Never used this practice, no idea who this DR is nor am I a male.

Scam call. Don't answer.

Caller: Rockhampton Central Medical Centre

This number is somewhat legit. Guys remember if you live in another state and receive a text from this number related to something medical. You may have used hotdoc for an urgent online Telehealth on demand appointment. This was the case for me I live in Sydney and the message was from a medical centre to which a doctor had called me for On Demand services recently.

Message: Important patient update: Rockhampton Central Medical Centre now offers 100% Bulk Billing for all GP patients . Valid Medicare card required. Some procedures or allied health services may incur a private fee. Book online: www.rockhamptoncentralmedicalcentre.com.au/sms Reply STOP to opt out

Of course never click links in text messages and proceed with caution but, hotdoc uses these text messaging services for prior customers and you may not remember using on demand where you had a doctor from another state contact you or your family members.

Scam message purported to be from a doctor at a clinic that we usually went but we never saw that doctor. The message was definitely not from that clinic, and the URL was wrong. Didn't click the URL, as not sure what's behind it.

Caller: HotDoc

Text message purporting to be HotDoc asking me to confirm a skin check appointment in Brisbane when I live in Victoria. Feels very scammy, and not written like a usual confirmation text would be. Be wary!

Caller: 0409 593 783 or 0409 593 783

0409 593 783 repeatedly sent me these text messages.
On 5 Aug 2025 :
“Hi Isabella, this is your confirmation for your appt on Tue 5 Aug at 08.10PM with Jackson Court Clinic at Jackson Court Clinic”

I texted back :
“I'm not Isabella and do not have any appointment tonight at 8.10pm at Jackson Court Clinic.
Please check the number and update your records.”

Mon 11 Aug 2025
Mobile number 0409 593 783 texts me again!!
“Hi Isabella, you have an appointment tomorrow at 05.40PM with Jackson Court Clinic. You can confirm or cancel here: https://htd.io/k6tsgwf7t “

I tried to call that mobile number 0409 593 783 but I get a recorded message that this mobile number is switched off.
Must be a scammer.
Reporting this pest mobile number 0409 593 783 to ACMA Spam hotline which is 0429 999 888.

This number was used to send a fake link to an on-line medical booking service using valid details about existing medical centres. Seems like an attempt to steal patient information or discredit other on-line booking companies.

Scam claiming to be all kinds of medical reminders etc for info 0409 593 783 had 8 texts over a year

Caller: 0409 593 783

Same, wanting medicare approval. From a dr that treated dad when he was alive but not the drs number. I rang the number and mobile always switched off. Scam. Not clicking on any links.

Caller: 0409 593 783

Message for me to confirm my Dr appointment for tomorrow. It was legitimate, but from some comments maybe someone else also uses this number

Caller: Said insurance company dealing with mother's claim, got her full name and address and phone numbers, but hung up when she continued about her complaints.

Don't give details

TXT Message Received - Reminder For Appointment at Allcare Medical Centre (Adelaide)
