After them charging me and my insurance they still needed me to see a doctors office. With covid going around we are trying to stay out of the doctors offices giving healthcare workers a break. I was under the impression they could treat minor issues. No point of using them when they send you to a doctor anyways. Might as well go to the walk-in. Save yourself the time and money.

Beware of being billed twice for the same service! They will charge your credit card AND your insurance company for the same virtual visit. Moreover, upon contacting them to resolve the above issue, they will tell you that "you're confused" and politely gas light you that you don't understand how insurance claims work!

I conducted a visit due to some unusual swelling in reaction to a personal training session. Thanks to Dr. G. and 98point6 for seeing me quickly (within 10 minutes), being willing to jump on a video call to discuss unusual symptoms, and recommending I go to urgent care for testing. If I hadn’t done a visit with 98point6, I would not have gone to urgent care because I was not in any significant pain. It seemed like just overworked muscles from exercise but lab work at urgent care diagnosed a rare and dangerous muscular disorder that if gone undiagnosed could have caused potentially fatal kidney

Very disappointed. Was told by our company that real doctors could prescribe treatment plans. After waiting 3 hours, found out this is limited to lab work and simple prescriptions. Doctor offices are closed except for emergencies. Being in pain and difficulty walking is not considered an emergency. Can't get a needed steroid shot or physical therapy

I'm not sure what to think of this business. I've used them twice and my experiences were on both ends of the spectrum.
My 1st experience was amazing and the doctor was one of the best I've ever encountered. If it was an option to exclusively use that doctor I would be all over it. I was impressed with the level of care and expected my next experience to be similar because I assume they hire top notch doctors.
My second experience was horrible and I'm not even sure how the person is a doctor! My 98.6 experience wasted my time and left me irritated and concerned for patients that may not be prudent

My 19yr old daughter contracted Mononucleosis (Eppstein-Barr) back in September 2019. She has had several re-occurrences of swollen tonsils since, this can happen with this condition. She typically goes to her primary care either at school or locally. For each re-occurrence the physician has provided steroid therapy to mitigate the symptoms. My company recently got onboard with this organization, so we thought we should try it, its free. After a thorough explanation of her condition via chat with the online "physician", the physician led her to believe she was providing her with a prescription

I was traveling and needed a refill of a prescription so I decided to use 98point6 to see if it really was worth my trouble. I got on line with the Dr. and in about 15 minutes he called my prescription into a pharmacy. I was impressed! I would have had to be on hold for my Dr. for considerable time in order to get a refill plus having to drive into the office if the Dr. decides he needs to see me.
This is really a great way to get medical health. 98point6 is TOPS!

98.6 was the easiest and convenient way to see a doctor. I'd been struggling with an on and off problem and wanting to go to my doctor but when I had the problem it wasn't convenient to go in or it would have been days before I could go in. Nothing is worse than suffering and then when you finally get to the doctor it doesn't seem so bad. This time I just did 98.6 from the convenience of my home. I had a nice discussion with the doctor and didn't feel rushed or shut down. They asked great questions and I felt they really investigated a big range of issued before making their recommendation.
