Why see an online doctor in Ballyfermot?
An online doctor lets you get medical advice without leaving Ballyfermot. You book a time, speak to an Irish-registered GP by video or phone, and receive the same kind of clinical assessment you would expect at a local surgery — for the many problems that do not need a physical examination.
Most online doctor appointments are for everyday problems: infections, skin complaints, contraception, repeat medication, certificates and general advice. If your doctor decides you need to be examined in person, they will tell you and explain the next step.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Ballyfermot 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 Ballyfermot?
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.
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.
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 Ballyfermot — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.
What if I need a doctor in person in Ballyfermot 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. Dublin, contact Dubdoc on 01 454 5607 — it is an appointment-only service with its own fees. Dubdoc covers parts of Dublin; some areas have a different service — check the HSE finder if unsure.

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.
What should I have ready for my online consultation?
Find a quiet, private place with a good signal, keep your phone charged, and have your medication names and any recent readings to hand. Your doctor will call you at the time you booked.
