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