Wrong forum here: This is the free, informational HealthTap service. Questions and answers here are public, and neither medical care nor prescriptions are provided. One can do an online consultation via HealthTap's premium services such Prime or Concierge. The fee is the same, whether or not the doctor gives a prescription. Sometimes (but often not) it is appropriate to get a prescription without an in-person exam.

Yes - but: Have to at this stage be within the Waikato DHB area and via an after-hours virtual consult. Outside this area would need to be via GP or urgent care clinic the traditional way. For routine repeat prescriptions and ongoing asthma review and management for safety reasons we instruct people to see/contact their GP for this rather than our service. Can post general information questions here thou
