Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Woodford 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 Woodford?
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.
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 Woodford.
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.
What if I need a doctor in person in Woodford 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.
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 Woodford — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.
Can I book a follow-up if I need one?
Yes. If your doctor wants to review you again they will say so, and you can simply book another appointment online.
