How a video or phone GP appointment works in Elphin
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.
If the signal drops, your doctor will simply call you back. If a problem cannot be dealt with remotely, they will explain what to do next.
- Doctor calls you at your booked time
- Phone or WhatsApp video — nothing to install
- Find a quiet, private place with a signal
- Have your medicines list to hand
- Same price whether it is video or phone: from €35

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Elphin 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 Elphin?
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.

Some private health insurers offer cashback or cover for GP visits, so check your policy. DrCall consultations are paid for privately by card.
