10 ways the Babylon app will make your life A LOT easier

Now you can access a doctor anytime, anywhere via video, audio or text. babylon is the world’s only fully integrated comprehensive mobile healthcare service. It allows users to ask a question and even attach an image, and they are guaranteed an answer from a medical practitioner in minutes.

 

All consultants are GMC registered with an average of 20 years experience.

 

On both the free and premium plans, you can connect within minutes to get the help you need, without having to drag the kids into the car in the lashing rain.

You can simply log in on your lunch break and finally sort out what exactly that rash on the back of your leg is.

We all know how expensive doctors are, but with apps like babylon, you can avoid any hefty bills.

Booking a consultation with a babylon GP is really easy and can be done in seconds. Not sure it’s worth an appointment? You can text any questions direct to a babylon doctor for free. Once your query is sent off, you will receive your answer within minutes, which means no more hours spent waiting in the surgery.

If there’s one thing that puts us mums off heading to the doctor’s surgery, it’s having to drag our kids along and have them sitting, bored and restless, in the waiting room. With babylon, this is a thing of the past – and your kids will be delighted to hear it.

Not only will you receive your consultation in a matter of minutes, but you can rest assured that you are getting the best standard of care possible from babylon’s team of dedicated and experienced health practitioners. The organisation is regulated by the CQC and all babylon GPs are UK-based and registered with the GMC. 

babylon is a super-convenient service in that it can be used anywhere, at any time. So, if you have a busy day ahead of you and you just can’t stop, you can use your app on-the-go – it really is breaking down the barriers that once kept you from visiting your doctor.

Thanks to the app’s medical records feature, all of the details of your medical history as well as your previous consultations are available in one place on your device – extra handy if you forget the details of your last diagnosis.

babylon can track your activities and body functions on a daily basis as part of a health monitoring system, which your GP or specialist can use in creating a fitness or health plan. This will be unique to you, tailored specifically to your lifestyle.

Through babylon, you can order a home-testing kit for a range of conditions – from diabetes to high cholesterol – and get your results delivered directly to your device. No more waiting around the doctor’s surgery for a five-minute examination.

If your ailment is not something that can be diagnosed or dealt with through a brief consultation, babylon offers you access to a range of experienced specialists or therapists. This means no more frantic Googling to find the right person to talk to.
