Convenience especially when I need immediate medical care is the reason for my choice in having a Plush care Dr. As my primary care Dr. In, addition my Dr. Is professional, polite and always listens to what I have to say & involving me in the medical plan.

I have been using PlushCare for 2 years now and have never had a bad experience. I wish I could say the same about doctors I have seen in person. They always listen, recommend, and follow up. Reminders are a must for me and they come in email and text. I can pull up any of my tests and doctors notes on the app. The convenience of anytime doctors is amazing! I have even used them when traveling across country.

It's a wonderful service! It's very difficult to schedule a visit with a primary care doctor in my area, everyone is booked out months. Waiting months is difficult if your doc wants to meet in person to prescribe you your daily meds! For me it's depression meds which are critical for my functioning. Having a PlushCare doc meet you at your convenience virtually for 5 minutes to simply send a prescription to your pharmacy is a godsend!

This is my second time using PlusCare in the past 10 months and it has been a very easy process and both Drs were very responsive and easy to work with. Sure beats waiting in long lines at a local facility!

Your telehealth questions answered

Wondering how to see a doctor online or what insurance covers? Our FAQ covers those questions and more to help you feel informed about virtual primary care.

What do virtual doctor consultations cost in Downey?
An online doctor visit costs way less than you'd expect. With insurance, most people pay under $25 or their regular copay to talk with our doctors. No insurance? It's $129 for an appointment, still much cheaper than going to a health clinic. You get the same medical care, prescriptions, and answers to your health questions at home.
Can I talk to a primary care doctor online right now?
Book a time, Login through your computer or tablet, and talk with one of our doctors from home. Our board-certified doctors diagnose, treat, and prescribe for many conditions without the clinic wait. We serve every state, including California, and appointments are available around the clock. Our process is easy, secure, and designed for professional medical care when you need it.
Are telehealth diagnoses as accurate as in-person?
Our online doctors deliver accurate diagnoses for thousands of conditions through virtual visits. Our virtual primary care doctors treat bacterial infections, respiratory illnesses, skin conditions, and help manage chronic diseases. We also support women’s health needs like urinary symptoms, vaginal infections, or menstrual-related concerns. Each patient receives a full evaluation, treatment plan, prescription support, and follow-up care. Work or school notes are provided when needed.
Are virtual appointments available for uninsured people?

Our board-certified doctors prescribe antibiotics, birth control, antidepressants, hypertension medications, and more, sending prescriptions electronically to your local Downey pharmacy. We provide same-day appointments including evenings and weekends, 15-minute visits, and prescription discount cards that save up to 80% on medications.
