On this form, you'll enter details such as your full name, gender, ID number, contact information and whether you'll be claiming your medication costs through a medical aid scheme. Following this form, you'll be asked to confirm your delivery address.

You'll then be taken to our secure online health questionnaire.

Fill in the questionnaire and submit it. You’ll be taken to the checkout screen where you will be asked to pay our service fee.

Following a successful payment, you’ll be asked to book your once-off virtual consultation with your assigned Partner Doctor at a time that suits you.

Your once-off digital consultation

The consultation will be performed by your assigned Partner Doctor over Google Meet and will last around 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, you can elect to have your consultation via a telephone call.

During your consultation, your assigned Partner Doctor will independently and professionally advise you of your options, answer any questions you may have, and if you are determined to be medically suitable, they will prescribe you the appropriate medication.

Our Partner Doctors will always take into account your opinion and consider what is best for both your body and your financial capabilities.

Delivery

Following a successful consultation with your assigned Partner Doctor, our Partner Pharmacy receives your prescription and begins to prepare your medication for delivery.

Our Partner Pharmacy will contact you directly by phone or email to confirm your personal details and delivery address if required. If you are claiming your medication costs through a medical aid scheme, they will also confirm your medical aid details and make a claim on your behalf.

Please note, if your medical aid claim is unsuccessful, our Partner Pharmacy will inform us and we will confirm with you that you are happy for us to charge your saved payment method the price of your medication. Going forward, you will be considered a 'cash' customer.

Your medication will then be packed and delivered for free to your designated delivery address within 1 -3 business days.

Subscription services

If you are on a subscription service, all you need to do is sit back and relax whilst Contro facilitates getting your medication delivered free to you every 28 days from your first delivery. There's no need to see your Partner Doctor for a repeat prescription or for you to go to the pharmacy to pick up your medication ever again!

You can cancel your subscription with us anytime with no cancellation fee.
