- Review the appointment time first
- Accept an offer only if it suits you
- Speak by video in your browser

HOW TIME MEDICS WORKS
Start online, then choose what suits you
Submitting a request is free and does not book an appointment. You decide whether to accept a doctor’s offer.
Tell us what's wrong
Describe your concern, your location and the relevant details. This lets available doctors consider whether they can help online.
Doctors reply
Available doctors who can help may send an offer with a proposed appointment time and their fee. Response times vary; a reply or appointment within an hour is not guaranteed.
You choose
Review any offers, including the doctor’s details, appointment time, fee and currency. A reply is an offer, not the consultation itself. Choose an offer that suits you.
Pay & speak by video
You are charged when you accept an offer. Join the video consultation in your browser at the agreed time using a camera-enabled device and an internet connection.
What if no doctor replies, or you need to be seen in person?
A request may receive no offers. If you do not accept an offer, you are not charged for submitting the request. Online consultations cannot provide every physical examination, test or treatment. A doctor may recommend an in-person appointment, which may involve a separate fee. Do not wait for a reply if you need urgent in-person care.
Time Medics is not an emergency service. In a medical emergency in Ireland, call 112 or 999.
