Cash Customers


The total cost for cash customers starts from R350 depending on your diagnosis and prescribed medication.

Medical Aid Customers


The total cost for medical aid customers is R300, depending if your medical aid scheme covers your prescribed medication.

If you would like a prescription for your medication rather than delivery, you can ask your assigned Partner Doctor during your consultation to receive your prescription via email for just R50.

If you are uncertain if your medical aid provider will cover the cost for your medication, our Partner Pharmacy will attempt your medical aid claim on your behalf and we will then let you know if this is successful or not. If your claim is not successful, you can opt to pay privately for your medication.

Kindly note, the service fee (R300) is not covered by medical aid providers, so this fee will need to be paid privately via the saved card details listed on your profile.

The total cost is inclusive of the service fee and prescribed medication. This is a starting point price and should be used as an estimate only. Your treatment cost will vary and will depend on the assigned doctor's diagnosis of your symptoms. Our Partner Doctors will always try to work within your budget while ensuring you receive the most effective treatment.
