All but worthless.
As another review states,  it seems good on the surface, but I don’t generally need help diagnosing my illness. The doctors generally don’t listen and want to argue with me about what’s happening when I already know and just need a prescription.  If you have absolutely no idea of you have the flu and need someone to tell you to go see your doctor or an urgent care, then Teledoc is for you. I know what is going on with my body and I need an appropriate prescription and here in lies the problem.  For example, I get bronchitis-like symptoms and have for years.  Years ago a primary care doc I had before he moved started me on an albuterol inhaler, mucinex and Z-pack when the symptoms reared up.  This has helped me get better every time and avoid bronchitis.  I get this a couple times a year and I have tried waiting it out on several occasions, but without the meds it has lasted 2 months, progressively getting worse until it turns into pneumonia.  So the way to fix it is with these three meds and it gets headed off before it gets real bad.   Getting the Z-pack is impossible because the docs tell me it won’t work.  Well I am 53 years old and heave been dealing with this for over 20 years and it DOES work.  What is the point of Teledoc if they refuse the simple prescription that will solve problem  in a couple days? I’m not looking for narcotics/pain meds, just an antibiotic....that works!  Now I get to go spend $160 at Urgent care.  Thanks for nothing Teledoc!
