8I've never used telehealth for a script before, but I've procrastinated too long to book an appointment with my GP, and now I've run out of meds I need! Curious to see how it goes, I requested the appointment about 15 mins ago and now I'm just chilling, not sure when to expect the call.
Edit: ok they just called me, about 20m after I booked. Took about 3 minutes on the phone confirming I've been on the medication for ages. They asked for a photo of last script, and said after the call I'd be given the option to upload it. I've now received my script but no option to upload pic, I guess I'm all set though!
I use instantscripts when I can't see my GP. They're usually really quick and I can't fault the service.
Takes the strain off public health as well, if you just need a med cert or a script.
I've used them a dozen times for med certs and they've always been quick and easy, good to know this seems like a reliable option for scripts too βΊοΈ
