How it works

Dr Fox carries out online consultations. Doctors issue the prescriptions. The medicine is dispensed and posted from a separate NHS pharmacy by recorded delivery.

• You choose a condition or treatment.
• An information page is presented for each condition. The information pages contain medical information, links to information websites and outlines of treatments. Important side-effects and cautions are listed on the information pages.
• You provide the doctor with health information by online questionnaire.
• At the end of the questionnaire you are advised if you are eligible to make a provisional order.
• After ordering you register and pay with a debit or credit card. Emails are sent to confirm orders.
• Registered patients can web message the site doctors from their account before and after placing an order. Doctors can also be contacted by phone and email (contact details).
• Site doctors check questionnaire answers and messages before prescriptions are issued.
• When a prescription is issued a confirmation email is sent.
• Medication is dispensed and posted by recorded delivery from a separate NHS pharmacy. A signature is required.
