Frequently asked questions

How much does an online GP consultation in Ballinafad cost?

A DrCall online consultation starts from €35. That covers your consultation, including a sick cert, repeat prescription or referral where clinically appropriate. Your card is only authorised when you book and is charged once a GP confirms your appointment.

What is an online doctor?

An online doctor is a registered doctor who consults with you remotely, by video or phone, instead of in a surgery. With DrCall you choose a time, tell us what is wrong, and your Irish-registered GP contacts you at your appointment.

Is an online doctor as good as seeing a GP in person in Ballinafad?

For many everyday problems, yes — much of a GP consultation is a conversation about your symptoms and history. Some problems do need an in-person examination, and your doctor will tell you if that is the case.

Do I have to travel to see the doctor?

No. Consultations take place by secure video or phone, so you can be at home in Ballinafad — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.

Can children see the online doctor?

DrCall is not intended for children under 3. For older children, a parent or guardian should make the booking and be with them during the consultation.

What if I need a doctor in person in Ballinafad tonight?

DrCall is an online service, so we cannot send a doctor to your door. For urgent in-person care when surgeries are closed in Co. Sligo, contact Caredoc on 0818 365 399 — it is an appointment-only service with its own fees. Caredoc’s north-west service covers Sligo, north Leitrim and west Cavan. You can also find your nearest out-of-hours GP or emergency department on the HSE website. In an emergency call 112 or 999. If your concern suits a video or phone consultation, you can book DrCall any day.

Can I claim an online GP visit on my health insurance?

Some private health insurers offer cashback or cover for GP visits, so check your policy. DrCall consultations are paid for privately by card.

Who can see my consultation details?

Your details are used to provide your care and are handled in line with GDPR. Consultations are confidential, exactly as they would be in a surgery.
