Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Drumcar 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.
Which pharmacy will my online prescription go to?
The one you choose when you book — for example, a pharmacy near Drumcar. If a prescription is issued, it is sent electronically to that pharmacy.
Can I get any medicine through an online prescription?
No. Your doctor decides what is safe and appropriate after speaking to you. Benzodiazepines, Z-drugs, opioids and stimulants cannot be prescribed through DrCall.
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.
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 Drumcar — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.
What if I need a doctor in person in Drumcar 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.

If your concern suits a video or phone consultation, you can book DrCall any day.
