Telehealth offers better primary care options to New York residents

Getting sick in New York City usually means waiting weeks for a doctor appointment. You call your primary care office, get put on hold, then find out the next opening is three weeks away. Our doctors work differently. You can book an appointment and see one of our physicians within minutes using your computer. No waiting rooms, no rushing through a five-minute conversation. Schedule through our app, join your video call, and talk with a doctor who has time to listen to what's wrong and figure out how to help you feel better.

We work with Quest Diagnostics and LabCorp when you need lab work done. After your visit, we set up your next appointment automatically so you don't have to remember to call back. Our doctors keep regular hours but also offer late appointments because getting sick doesn't stick to a schedule. Instead of crowded waiting rooms where everyone's coughing, you get focused time with a doctor who can answer your questions without rushing you out the door.

Patient reviews show how we've changed healthcare in NYC

Traditional doctors rush through appointments, but our NYC patients rate us 4.9 out of 5 stars because we actually listen during visits. We provide lab ordering with results reviewed digitally. Read their reviews to see why patients trust our virtual primary care.

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!

Patient questions about online care

Wondering how much online doctors cost or if they prescribe meds? Our FAQ gives clear answers about care, insurance, mental health support, and how virtual doctor visits really work.

What's the price for virtual doctor visits?
Most insured patients pay $25 or just their copay to see one of our doctors. If you don't have insurance, the visit is $129. Thatâ€™s often cheaper than urgent care or a walk-in clinic, with better access and support.
How do I connect with a virtual doctor?
Seeing an online doctor is easy. Schedule your visit through our platform, then connect with licensed general practitioners online. Our doctors diagnose common conditions, answer medical questions, and prescribe medications when needed. Available 24/7 across all 50 states, our virtual doctors provide the same care as in-person visits. Perfect for busy schedules or frequent travelers who need reliable medical consultations anywhere.
Will an online doctor give me an accurate diagnosis?
Yes, our online doctors can properly diagnose you through video visits. You'll see your doctor's face, speak directly about symptoms, and show concerns like skin issues. Our virtual primary care doctors handle over 3,500 conditions including respiratory infections, mental health concerns, chronic disease management, women's health, and men's health. Plus doctor's notes when needed.
Can I see a doctor online without insurance?
You don't need insurance to see our doctors online. We're in-network with most major plans, and if you're uninsured, visits are $129. Thatâ€™s far less than most clinics and unlike other platforms, we welcome everyone with clear pricing upfront.
Can online doctors prescribe medications during virtual appointments?
You need a doctor consultation before getting prescription medication online, which you can complete through our virtual appointments via video chat. Our board-certified doctors write prescriptions for antibiotics, birth control, blood pressure medications, and send them electronically to your pharmacy after your 15-minute visit. We offer same-day appointments including evenings and weekends, plus save up to 80% with our prescription discount card.
Can I get therapy and medication through virtual appointments?
Yes, you can get mental health support online with PlushCare. Our board-certified primary care doctors prescribe medications for depression, anxiety, and other conditions, while our licensed therapists provide therapy sessions from home. This dual approach costs less than traditional in-person visits and sends prescriptions directly to your local pharmacy with personalized treatment plans.
