Reviews from real patients

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!
