Teleconsult + Telemedicine: See a Doctor Online in Minutes

OnlineDoctor.sg was built for Singaporeans who need quick, legitimate access to medical care. Instead of waiting at a crowded clinic, patients join our teleconsult queue, speak to a doctor in minutes, and receive digital documentation straight to their inbox. Here’s how the workflow operates day to day.

Live queue with concierge support

  • Teleconsult hours: Weekdays 9am – 3pm (excluding public holidays).
  • Average wait time: 0–15 minutes depending on demand.
  • Concierges monitor every patient via WhatsApp (+65 8897 7900) so you are never left guessing about your turn.

What you need before the call

  1. Identification — NRIC, Passport, or FIN for verification.
  2. Recent readings — thermometer, blood pressure, glucose, or oxygen saturation.
  3. Symptom notes — onset time, medications already taken, allergies.

Inside the teleconsult

  • Doctors conduct two-way video assessments as required by MOH.
  • Expect targeted questions about contagion risk, home environment, and ability to perform daily tasks.
  • If red flags appear (chest pain, neurological symptoms), the doctor will halt the call and direct you to urgent care.

After the consult

  • Pay via PayNow or credit/debit card.
  • Receive a DigiMC plus consultation summary via email.
  • Arrange medication delivery (typically in under three hours) or self-collect. Every parcel is sealed, labelled, and requires your verification code.

Suitable conditions

  • Mild respiratory infections (cough, sore throat, flu).
  • Gastroenteritis without dehydration.
  • Rashes, eczema flare-ups, hives.
  • Stable chronic issues needing short extensions or refills (gout, hypertension, contraception).

When to skip telemedicine

Head directly to an in-person clinic or A&E if you have:

  • Severe breathlessness or chest discomfort.
  • High fever that lasts more than three days, especially with rashes.
  • Uncontrolled vomiting, heavy bleeding, trauma, or suspected fractures.

  • Transparent fees — S$18 nett per consult, medication billed per prescription.
  • Coordinated follow-up — Our concierge can schedule reviews, provide records (with consent), and guide corporate clients through billing.
