The Doctors' Health Advisory Service (DHAS) (NSW) aims to ensure that every doctor, dentist, veterinarian and student studying these professions has ready access to health care. We offer a telephone help line for personal and confidential advice for practitioners and students, and also for colleagues and family members in NSW and the ACT. We handle calls relating to stress and mental illness, drug and alcohol problems, or personal and financial difficulties. No problem is too trivial or too serious. Our staff and volunteer doctors can provide advice and referrals if required.
