Struggling to afford a simple doctor visit? You’re not alone—and you’re not out of options. At Call-On-Doc, we’re making healthcare more accessible with our Compassionate Care Program: a way to get free online visits for everyday health issues—no insurance, no appointments, no judgment.
Call-On-Doc’s Compassionate Care Program offers free virtual medical consultations for essential but often overlooked health conditions. It’s designed for anyone who needs quick, reliable care and may be unable to pay out of pocket.
Compassionate care conditions are subject to change and update, but currently you can get free consultations for:
Our program helps you get the care you need and helps offset issues such as medication costs, stigma and other barriers that prevent you from essential healthcare needs.
*Please note the visit is free, but medication is not included and still needs to be paid for at the pharmacy.
No phone call, no awkward waiting rooms, no hidden fees. Just convenient, compassionate care when you need it most.
Because basic healthcare should never be a luxury. We’ve seen too many people go without help due to high costs, lack of insurance, or fear of judgment. Our providers believe access to treatment is a right—not a privilege.
That’s why we created the Compassionate Care Program: to make sure no one is left behind, especially for common health concerns that affect everyday people.

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."
