Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an online consultation as effective as an in-person visit? +
For the vast majority of general health concerns — including minor illnesses, chronic medication management, prescription renewals, and issuing documentation — an online consultation is equally effective. Dr. Lopes will let you know if your condition requires an in-person examination or referral.
What technology do I need for a video consultation? +
You simply need a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a working camera and microphone, and a stable internet connection. No special software is required — you'll receive a link that opens directly in your browser.
Are my consultations private and confidential? +
Yes. All consultations are conducted under the same doctor-patient confidentiality principles as an in-person visit. Your health information is never shared without your consent, in accordance with POPIA and HPCSA guidelines.
Can I use my medical aid? +
Dr. Lopes is registered with major South African medical aids. You pay upfront and receive an invoice to submit to your medical aid for reimbursement. Please check your specific plan's benefits for online consultations, as cover varies by scheme and option.
How will I receive my prescription or sick note? +
All documents are issued digitally and sent to your email address. Prescriptions can be sent directly to a pharmacy of your choice, or emailed to you. Electronic prescriptions and sick notes are valid and legally recognised in South Africa.
What if my condition requires an in-person visit? +
If Dr. Lopes determines that your condition requires a physical examination, she will advise you accordingly and provide a referral if needed. In such cases, a reduced consultation fee may apply.
