Get immediate medical support at home through voice and video calls

Posted on May 22, 2020 | 2 minute read

We’re all rapidly adjusting to a new normal due to the continuing threat of the coronavirus. Regular activities like eating out and exercising are now largely confined to our homes; physical shops offering goods and services are working around the quarantine restrictions through apps, courier services, or e-meets.

Healthcare has also adopted a similar approach, bringing medical consultations to your home! This is not only safe and convenient but also more affordable. Going to a medical clinic or hospital nowadays is difficult due to the community quarantine and lack of public transportation. Visiting in person puts us at a higher risk of contracting Covid-19 or even spreading it. By not going to the hospital for non-urgent concerns, we also help our medical frontliners focus on patients with Covid-19 symptoms and other critical concerns.

If you would like to consult a licensed doctor for medical advice and information, skip Googling your symptoms and check out these services instead!

Konsulta MD

Konsulta MD is a subscription-based 24/7 telehealth service, allowing you access to a team of licensed Filipino doctors who are trained, experienced, and ready to provide you with quality medical information. Through “teleconsultation” — a health consultation via call or video call — you will be instantly connected to a skilled and licensed doctor. They offer not just professional medical advice; first aid, primary care, health and wellness counseling, and even ambulance referrals are also available.

All you have to do is subscribe to KonsultaMD for as low as P60 per month. Aside from subscribing weekly or monthly, you can also choose from several payment options. Choose to pay with GCash, Globe postpaid billing, prepaid load, credit card, and more!

To enjoy Konsulta MD’s services, there are three ways to subscribe:
