How a video or phone GP appointment works in Callan
Video helps when your doctor needs to see something — a rash, a swelling or how you are breathing. A voice call is fine for many other consultations. Your doctor will tell you if they need to see you on camera.
To get the most from the call, find a quiet, private spot in Callan with a good phone signal or Wi-Fi, keep your phone charged, and have your medication names and any recent readings (such as blood pressure) to hand.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Callan 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.
Do I need to download an app for a video GP appointment?
No. Your doctor contacts you by phone call or WhatsApp video call on the number you provide when booking. You do not need a DrCall account.
What if my connection is poor in Callan?
Tell the doctor straight away. A normal phone call usually works even where video does not, and your doctor can call you back if the line drops.

Yes, where your doctor considers it clinically appropriate. Prescriptions are sent electronically to the pharmacy you choose, and sick certs are available for work or college. DrCall cannot prescribe benzodiazepines, Z-drugs, opioids or stimulants.

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.
