How an online GP consultation works in Co. Galway

You do not need a DrCall account. If you have a regular GP in Co. Galway, mention them when you book — your online doctor may suggest follow-up with them where that is the sensible next step.

An online GP consultation follows the same shape as a surgery visit. Your doctor asks about your symptoms and medical history, may ask you to describe — or show on camera — what is bothering you, and agrees a plan with you: advice, a prescription, a certificate, a referral, or a recommendation to be seen in person.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an online doctor available in Co. Galway?

Yes. DrCall serves patients in every town and village in Co. Galway. Book a video or phone consultation with an Irish-registered GP any day of the week.

What is the difference between an online GP and my local GP in Co. Galway?

An online GP consults by video or phone, so you can be seen quickly from anywhere. Your local surgery knows your long-term history and can examine you in person. Many people use both — DrCall for convenience and speed, their local GP for ongoing care.

Slots are 15 minutes. Your doctor will take the time they need to deal with your concern properly.

How much does an online GP consultation in Co. Galway 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 if I need a doctor in person in Co. Galway 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.
