Call-On-Doc, one of America’s highest-rated telemedicine providers, continues to expand access to convenient, affordable healthcare by offering online medical consultations and at-home test kits delivered directly to patients’ homes.
Founded before telehealth became widely adopted, Call-On-Doc has long focused on making quality medical care more accessible—especially for patients who face barriers to in-person visits. By combining secure digital consultations with home-based testing options, Call-On-Doc allows patients to manage more of their healthcare safely and comfortably from home.
At-home test kits are the latest step in Call-On-Doc’s mission to simplify healthcare. Studies show that a significant portion of patients are unable to visit traditional labs due to time constraints, transportation challenges, or work and family responsibilities. At-home testing helps close that gap.
Call-On-Doc currently offers 17 at-home lab tests, with additional options continually being added. Available tests include screening and monitoring for:
Diabetes
Cholesterol
Thyroid function
Kidney health
Liver health
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
And more
Test kits are typically priced between $35 and $50 and arrive in a prepaid return package. After following the included instructions, patients mail their specimen back to the lab. Results are usually available within 3–5 days and can be viewed securely through the patient’s online account.
Patients also receive guidance on how to understand their results and what next steps—if any—may be appropriate.
By making at-home testing easy and affordable, Call-On-Doc helps patients take control of their health without unnecessary delays or in-person visits. All test results are reviewed by board-certified physicians experienced in telemedicine, ensuring continuity of care and medical oversight.
To date, Call-On-Doc has supported millions of patient encounters and earned over 100,000 five-star reviews. The platform enables evaluation and treatment for 70+ conditions across a wide range of specialties, including:
Women’s health
Men’s health

Microdosing GLP-1s: When the Scale Slows (and Why That’s Not Bad)
One of the most frustrating moments for people using GLP-1 medications—especially with a microdosing approach—is stepping on the scale and seeing it stall or slow down.
After weeks of subtle changes, steadier eating, and fewer cravings, it’s easy to think:
“Is this still working?”
From a medical perspective, a slower-moving scale during GLP-1 microdosing is often not a failure signal. In many cases, it’s a sign that the medication is doing something more foundational than rapid weight loss.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections treated in outpatient and telehealth settings. For most people, it’s uncomfortable but straightforward — a short course of antibiotics and symptoms improve quickly.
However, when a UTI is delayed, ignored, or inadequately treated, it can progress beyond the bladder and, in rare but serious cases, lead to sepsis, a life-threatening medical emergency.
Understanding how this happens helps explain why early treatment matters so much.

Feedback from our amazing patients!
"I can’t believe I did not know about this kind of service! This was absolutely perfect for my health concern and they were able to provide me with the necessary medication and with such cinch. Completely recommended this service. For minor health concerns, this can save you an unnecessary and costly trip to an urgent care center."
"Amazing!! Easy and fast! I didn’t have to take my 4 year old into an urgent care where only god knows what germs are there. The doctor sent the script right to my pharmacy within minutes!!!"
"I would give 10 stars if I could! CallonDoc is literally the reason I am recovering instead of suffering as I write this. I was skeptical at first, but I’m not kidding when I tell you I got prescribed my antibiotics and picked it up at the pharmacy within 2 hours. So instead of waiting & paying around 300$...I paid 40$!! I’m very pleased."
