What WE DO
Air Secretary helps physicians and surgeons leverage competent secretarial staff that improves the efficiency of their private practice, eliminates the administrative burden and removes the headache of recruiting, training and maintaining staff.
So that you can concentrate on helping your patients.
I employed my first staff member in the Philippines in October 2019. At that time I wanted some help with my never ending list of admin tasks which my secretaries did not have time to complete. There was outstanding billing and invoices, missed emails and referrals needing to be triaged. This staff member is now team leader of 5 fully trained medical secretaries based in our office in the Philippines who work closely with my local secretarial team in Melbourne to run my respiratory practice.
Doctors have frequently asked me to help them employ off-site staff to help their practice. I realised that many specialist practices were experiencing similar problems of being overrun with secretarial work limiting their ability to run efficiently. They needed help to offload administrative tasks from themselves and from their secretaries. So, in November 2022, Air Secretary was established to help other Australian doctors benefit from employing medical secretaries off site to support their practice.
Air Secretary will find and recruit a full time staff member who will work exclusively with your practice. This staff member will be set up in our office in the Philippines within the friendly and supportive environment of our team. They will be guided through a training and onboarding program to qualify as a medical secretary. We will manage them and provide ongoing education and support so that they can provide high quality work for your practice.

The use of remote staff in my practice has been a game changer.
The staff are cheerful and more than competent. Their English is sound (but with an American accent). They are excellent at the myriad of support tasks in a practice – the organisation of work, booking of operation lists and booking patients in the rooms. There is a distinct advantage to having the telephone answered away from a reception desk – it means that the staff in the rooms can give their sole attention to the patient in front of them and not seem distracted by the ‘phone calls. The cost of staff plummets; this is a distinct and obvious advantage. There is work needed in organising the logistics – I have used software that was already installed with Outlook. A digital telephone system is essential.
