Amazing service - couldn’t recommend them enough

I have used their services 3 times now and I just couldn’t recommend this app enough. The doctors that came to see me were very helpful, kind, understanding and listened carefully. I have only had to call them for mild symptoms/issues that happened over the weekend and I couldn’t leave the house but always got taken care of within less than 3hrs each time. I understand this is not an emergency service so I don’t expect them to treat me any differently than my gp would (she always has a 2hr waiting time even on a good day).

Furious

I called the service for my 13month old son and waiting 25mins to get onto someone which is completely understandable as it was 2am. However, once the lady came on the line I was relieved and collecting my thoughts, telling her his history of asthma and what we would usually take him to the GP for. She said we can’t help, you need to call an ambulance, I tried to explain that I just need a moment to tell her the details and that an ambulance isn’t required just someone to check over my son and approve me giving him medication. She wouldn’t listen and scoffed at me saying ‘these calls are recorded and you said difficulty breathing (which I said in relation to explaining the whole picture to her) so I’m going to HANG up now’ and she just HUNG up on me!!! I’m shocked, she wouldn’t give me a chance to explain and use the service correctly. I understand there are protocols, but at least give me a chance to explain and then stick to protocol. Please don’t just hang up on a mother trying to do her best! As a very informed mother who understands the health system, I know that my sons particular needs tonight don’t require him taking the place of someone in an emergency and going to the ER. Was so thankful to find this service tonight but now very disappointed in the treatment.

Literally NEVER worked

I've tried using this service via the app only because they never answer the phone. I've tried a few times over the last few years and literally not once have I ever been seen by a doctor. I did get the confirmation SMS once - once - but, the doc still never showed. This is a joke, a sham, a national embarrassment, or a mix of the above.
UPDATE: tried again tonight. After 2 hours, I was called by Gabriela. She advised that there are no doctors in my Sydney metro area. When I said 'hmm, that sounds just like all the online reviews', she abruptly cut me off with 'fine, well, I'll just cancel this for you, then!' and hung up on me... I mean the point of the call was to cancel anyway, but that's not the correct attitude when dealing with the infirm. This app is a waste of digital space in my phone.
