See a doctor online in Galway City today

Galway City is a lively university city on Galway Bay where the River Corrib meets the sea, in Co. Galway.

As the county town of Co. Galway, Galway City is a natural hub for the surrounding area, and DrCall serves patients right across the county.

A video or phone consultation gives you access to the same Irish-registered GPs without the commute. Your doctor can send prescriptions electronically to a pharmacy near you and explain the next steps clearly.

Why see an online doctor in Galway City?

People in Galway City often choose an online doctor because it removes the travel and the waiting room. You can take the consultation at home, at work or between shifts, as long as you are somewhere private with a phone signal.

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 Galway City 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 Galway City?

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.

Is an online doctor consultation private and safe?

Yes. Consultations use secure, GDPR-compliant technology, our doctors follow Irish Medical Council guidelines, and the same doctor–patient confidentiality applies as in a face-to-face visit.

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.

What if I need a doctor in person in Galway City 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. Galway, contact Westdoc on 0818 360 000 — it is an appointment-only service with its own fees. 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.

Which pharmacy will my prescription go to?

The pharmacy you choose when you book. If your doctor issues a prescription it is sent electronically to that pharmacy, so you can collect it close to Galway City.

What if I need to be seen in person?

If a physical examination is needed, your doctor will explain why and advise on the best next step. In an emergency, call 112 or 999 or go to your nearest emergency department.
