Online consultations can make medical support more accessible when travel or a demanding schedule makes in-person care difficult. They offer busy professionals, parents and students a practical way to speak to a doctor privately.
Dr Sebastião offers secure online consultations during standard working hours, with after-hours availability for busy professionals where possible. Online appointments can be useful for suitable follow-ups, mental health discussions, medical aid guidance and general concerns that do not require a physical examination.
Before your appointment, you may receive GoodX or MyGC links by email or SMS. These let you create a secure profile, complete forms and share information ahead of time.
Choose a private, quiet space and check your internet connection, camera and microphone. Confidentiality matters, so attend from somewhere you can speak openly.
Online consultations are generally 30 minutes at GP rates. If more time is needed, a prolonged consultation fee may apply.
Online care is not suitable for emergencies, severe symptoms or urgent mental health crises. Those require immediate emergency support. For appropriate situations, however, online care can reduce travel time and make follow-through easier.
