FAQ to Our Online Doctor

What is happening during the online GP consultation?
In an online doctor video consultation, several key steps usually take place to ensure that the patient receives a similar level of care as they would in an in-person visit, but remotely. Here’s a typical rundown of what happens:
Scheduling and Preparation
The patient schedules an appointment through a platform or service that offers video consultations. Before the consultation, the patient might be asked to provide relevant medical history, symptoms, and any specific issues they want to discuss.
Technical Setup
Both the patient and the doctor need a stable internet connection, a device with a camera (like a computer, tablet, or smartphone), and access to the video conferencing platform that the clinic uses.
Identification and Consent: At the start of the consultation, the doctor might verify the patient's identity and ensure that the patient understands and consents to the online consultation process and any data handling that comes with it.
Consultation
The actual consultation takes place via video call. The doctor will ask questions about the patient's symptoms, medical history, and any other relevant information. The patient can also ask questions and express concerns. The doctor might guide the patient through self-examination techniques if necessary.
Diagnosis and Advice
Based on the discussion and observations during the video call, the doctor might offer a diagnosis or request further tests (which might require a physical visit or can sometimes be done at home). The doctor will also provide advice on managing the condition, including prescribing medication, recommending lifestyle changes, or referring to specialists.
Prescriptions and Follow-ups:
If medication is prescribed, the prescription can often be sent directly to a pharmacy electronically. The doctor may also schedule a follow-up visit to monitor the patient's progress.
Documentation: The doctor will document the consultation in the patient's medical records, just as they would with an in-person visit.
Payment
Finally, the patient may need to handle payment or insurance claims, which can often be completed online through the healthcare provider’s platform.
Is an online consultation appropriate for emergencies?
No, online consultations are not suitable for emergency situations. If you have a medical emergency, please visit your nearest hospital emergency department or call the local emergency services immediately.
What technology do I need to use the Online Doctor service?
You will need a reliable internet connection and a device with a camera and microphone, such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Ensure your device supports video calling.
How are prescriptions handled through the Online Doctor service?
Online prescriptions issued by the Online Doctor can be sent directly to a pharmacy of your choice electronically, or you can receive a digital prescription that can be used at any pharmacy.
Can I get a referral to a specialist through the Online GP?
Yes, if your online doctor determines that you need specialized care, they can issue a referral electronically. You can use this referral to book an appointment with a specialist.
What are the consultation fees, and how do I make a payment?
Consultation fees are outlined on our 'Fees' page. Payment can be made online through secure payment methods, including credit and debit cards, at the time of booking your appointment.
Are the online consultations confidential and secure?
