How a video or phone GP appointment works in Fermoy
After you book, your doctor contacts you at the time you chose — by phone call or WhatsApp video call, on the number you gave when booking. There is nothing to install and no account to create.
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.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Fermoy 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 Fermoy?
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.
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 Fermoy — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.
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 Fermoy 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. Cork, contact SouthDoc on 0818 355 999 — it is an appointment-only service with its own fees. You can also find your nearest out-of-hours GP or emergency department on the HSE website.

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.
Can I claim an online GP visit on my health insurance?
