Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Ballymote 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.
Can an online Dr in Ballymote send me a prescription?
Where your doctor considers it clinically appropriate, yes — it is sent electronically to the pharmacy you choose. Some medicines cannot be prescribed online, such as benzodiazepines, Z-drugs, opioids and stimulants.
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.
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 Ballymote 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.
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 Ballymote — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.
Can I see a doctor at the weekend in Ballymote?
Yes. DrCall runs seven days a week, so weekend and evening appointments are available — the booking page shows the live times.
