Frequently asked questions

Can I see a GP online in Drogheda today?

Check the live appointment calendar for today's available video or phone consultations. Same-day appointments depend on the GP roster; a particular time is not guaranteed.

Can I get a prescription sent to a pharmacy in Drogheda?

Do I need to be registered with a GP in Drogheda?

You do not need to be registered with a local practice for a standard NOVAGP consultation. With your consent, a summary can be shared with your usual GP. Dedicated mental health consultations require an Irish GP and sharing a summary with them.

Can GP appointments be online in Ireland?

An Irish Medical Council registered GP can assess suitable concerns by video or phone. If a physical examination, tests or urgent assessment are needed, the GP will advise in-person care.

Can I get a sick cert from an online doctor in Drogheda?

Yes. Verified sick leave is €25 with a short GP video check, and certificates can be checked by employers via QR code. A GP issues one only when clinically appropriate. Certificates and referrals are at the GP's discretion and are not guaranteed by booking.
