Everything was super clean and calm, the doctor was great, did my urine test really quick, right in front of me and gave me medications. Saved me the whole day of waiting in the hospital, especially since I'm a tourist and I didn't wanna waste my time on waiting. The price wasn't too bad, especially not for London standard.”

Extremely kind and caring, listened to my very long list of problems that I'd been struggling with for years and gave recommendations and treatment in just a few days.

It is quite expensive but 100% well worth the price.”

FAQ - Our Services
- What kind of issues can I address online?
Many types - from minor illnesses to chronic conditions, mental health support, sexual health, repeat prescriptions, referrals, letters, and general advice.
- How do I book a video consultation?
Book your appointments conveniently online via the DocTap website. Live availability, including last-minute and same-day slots, can be viewed on our booking page.
- What if I need blood tests, scans or further diagnostics?
Your GP can arrange tests and scans during your video consultation, and advise you on next steps. If needed you may be asked to attend an in-person appointment, but follow‑up care can often remain online.
- Can an online GP prescribe antibiotics?
Yes, but only when the online GP can assess the problem safely and believes an antibiotic is clinically appropriate. Some straightforward infections may be suitable for remote assessment; symptoms that require an ear, chest, abdominal or skin examination, a urine or swab test, or urgent observations may need a clinic or emergency service instead. Antibiotics do not treat viral infections, and booking never guarantees a prescription. You can review online GP appointments at https://doctap.co.uk/online-gp. If prescribed, DocTap can issue an e-prescription at no extra DocTap fee, but you pay the pharmacy for the medicine; further prescription information is available at https://doctap.co.uk/prescriptions.
- Who are the doctors?
All of our experienced GPs are registered with the UK General Medical Council (GMC) and have received training in the UK. For a complete list of our doctors, please visit our ‘Clinicians’ page.
