The DAP+ Advice line has been set up to offer endocrine and diabetes advice to clinicians working within primary care and tertiary sector caring for patients residing within the Hunter New England region.

During normal business hours of 8:30 am to 5.00 pm, clinicians can call the Endocrine and Diabetes Alliance Advice Line number and speak with an endocrinologist advanced trainee (AT) and obtain clinical advice in relation to urgent and non-urgent diabetic treatment and associated care on the same day. 
Any calls received after 5.00 p.m. are directed to the on-call John Hunter Hosptial endocrinologist.    

For non-urgent advice clinicians can request written advice, which is provided within 7 working days, using SeNT eReferrals or by faxing a stand referral requesting advice.  

Further information can be found within Hunter New England Community HealthPathways Diabetes Specialist Referrals page.
