How much does an online GP consultation in Ballincollig 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.
Is an “online Dr” a real doctor?
Yes. Every DrCall consultation is carried out by a doctor registered with the Irish Medical Council, following the same professional standards as a surgery visit.
