When to speak to a GP online

General practitioners are your first point of contact for most symptoms. They can assess your condition, provide treatment recommendations, and refer you to a specialist if needed — all without unnecessary delays.

Fever, cough, fatigue and other signs of infection

Fever, cough, fatigue and other signs of infection


Fever, chills, sore throat, body aches, cough and general weakness may indicate a viral or bacterial infection. Even if it feels like a common cold, some symptoms can signal more serious issues — especially if the fever persists for over 24 hours, fatigue worsens or new symptoms appear.

An online GP will evaluate your condition, check for warning signs like chest pain or shortness of breath, and guide you on next steps. In many cases, supportive treatment is enough, but you may also be issued an electronic prescription for antipyretics or antibiotics if clinically appropriate.

You don’t need to travel to a clinic — online urgent care is often the fastest way to get medical help for flu-like symptoms, respiratory infections, and mild COVID-related concerns.

Abdominal pain, digestion problems and acute symptoms

Abdominal pain, digestion problems and acute symptoms

Stomach pain, nausea, diarrhoea, bloating or vomiting can be linked to food poisoning, gastritis flare-ups or infections of the gastrointestinal tract. These symptoms should not be ignored, especially if they persist or worsen.

A GP will ask about your eating habits, symptom patterns, triggers and related signs like fever. They may recommend a temporary diet adjustment, prescribe medication to ease symptoms, or refer you to a gastroenterologist for further testing if needed.

For non-emergency digestive issues, an online GP consultation allows you to act quickly and get the advice you need to prevent complications such as dehydration or worsening inflammation.

Chronic condition flare-ups

Chronic condition flare-ups

If you have a chronic condition such as high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma or thyroid dysfunction, sudden changes in symptoms can require timely medical input. For example, you might notice changes in your energy levels, breathing, sleep, blood sugar or blood pressure.

An online consultation allows your GP to assess whether your current treatment plan still works or needs adjustment. You can also discuss recent test results, dosage changes or potential interactions between medications.

Online GP appointments are especially useful when you can’t reach your regular doctor — they ensure that conditions like hypertension or hypothyroidism remain under control, and help you avoid unnecessary delays.

General fatigue and non-specific symptoms

General fatigue and non-specific symptoms

Feeling unusually tired, struggling with focus or sleep, or just “not feeling right” could signal underlying issues — from vitamin deficiencies or hormonal shifts to stress-related conditions or low-grade inflammation.

A GP will ask targeted questions, rule out serious causes and recommend initial steps such as blood tests or lifestyle adjustments. If needed, you’ll be referred to a relevant specialist like an endocrinologist or neurologist.

Non-specific symptoms are easy to dismiss, but early consultation helps create a clear clinical picture and avoid escalation. Online appointments make it simple to start investigating mild but persistent concerns.

Prescription renewals and long-term treatment monitoring

Prescription renewals and long-term treatment monitoring

If you’re already on prescribed medication and need a repeat prescription or a review, an online GP consultation is a fast and efficient solution. It ensures continued access to necessary treatment, without missing doses.

Your GP will confirm that the medicine is still safe and effective, ask about side effects or health changes, and decide whether to issue a renewal. For long-term medications like antihypertensives or thyroid tablets, this regular check-in is essential.

Online care helps you stay on track with your treatment plan and catch any issues early — without unnecessary clinic visits.

Amazing service. Forgot to bring my antibiotics to Portugal and sent my diagnosis from my GP app. Had a prescription sent to my phone in Portugal within 15 minutes. Only cost €19. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Frequently asked questions about online GP

Learn when and how to use online GP consultations, what to expect during your appointment, and how to access prescriptions or referrals remotely.

What health concerns can I discuss with a GP online?
You can consult a general practitioner (GP) online for a wide range of non-emergency issues. Common reasons include fever, cold or flu symptoms, fatigue, digestive discomfort, skin problems, or mild infections. GPs also provide ongoing support for chronic conditions like hypertension, asthma, or diabetes. If you’re unsure where to start or need professional advice about your symptoms, an online GP consultation is a safe and efficient first step.
Can I get a prescription after an online consultation?
Yes. If the GP finds that medication is appropriate based on your symptoms and health history, they will issue an electronic prescription. This applies to both new treatments and renewals for ongoing medication. You can use the prescription at a pharmacy in the country where the doctor is licensed, as long as it complies with local regulations.
What if I don’t know which type of doctor I need?
An online GP is the right place to start if you’re not sure which specialist to see. The GP will evaluate your condition, answer your questions, and, if necessary, refer you to a specialist such as a cardiologist, gastroenterologist, neurologist, or dermatologist. This approach helps you avoid unnecessary appointments and receive targeted care faster.
Can I get a lab test referral or medical note from a GP?
Yes. During your consultation, the GP may recommend diagnostic tests such as blood work or imaging if further evaluation is needed. You can also request medical documentation, such as a fit note or sick leave certificate, if your condition requires rest or monitoring. Once test results are available, you can book a follow-up to discuss next steps.
How reliable is online diagnosis without a physical examination?
Online consultations are suitable for many non-critical conditions. GPs rely on your symptom descriptions, medical history, and available data (e.g., photos, past lab results, home measurements like temperature or blood pressure). If your condition requires an in-person evaluation, the doctor will inform you and guide you on what to do next.
What’s the difference between an express GP consultation and a standard one?
An express consultation is a quick 15-minute session with the next available GP — ideal for urgent questions, medication reviews, or discussing a single symptom. A standard consultation gives you more time and allows you to choose a doctor. It’s better suited for more complex issues or if you have multiple concerns to discuss.
