Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Kenmare 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.
Will my employer accept an online sick cert?
A certificate issued after a genuine consultation with an Irish-registered doctor is normally accepted, but employer policies vary. If you are unsure, check with your employer or HR before you book.
Can you backdate a sick cert for me in Kenmare?
Only if your doctor has a clinical reason, based on your consultation. They cannot backdate a certificate simply because it is requested.
What happens after I book an appointment?
Your request goes to our team, who confirm it or suggest another time. Your card is only authorised at booking and is charged once your GP confirms. You will get an email at each step.
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.
What if I need a doctor in person in Kenmare 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.

In an emergency call 112 or 999. If your concern suits a video or phone consultation, you can book DrCall any day.
How long does an online GP consultation take?
A typical consultation lasts around 15 minutes, though your doctor will take the time they need to help you properly.
