i have never used it and from what i know a lot of money (like, state money) that should have gone to actual doctors appointments and helping people who really need it are going to those apps instead, and i don't like that. otherwise i don't see any benefits for myself in contacting them in that kind of way anyway (if my problems are that small then I can google, and if they are bigger than that then I can get my ass over there to see an actual doctor irl)
i've also heard that they prescribe meds etc a bit too easily which doesn't sound good either.
but i'm sure some believe they have good experiences with the apps.
i do really believe it should be funded during these lockdowns, while distancing, but that being said, most doctors on there are unfortunately shit and not professional at all.
ya, heard that too. first thing that popped up when i searched for reviews was a forum discussing which drugs would be easiest to get thru the apps lol
yes i believe it must've been good for some. my mom really likes to use it with my baby sis because she doesn't drive and it's a bit to walk to get to the emergency room so she finds it useful
yeah i haven't thought about it in the covid aspect, since the apps appeared before the pandemic and i formed my "opinion" back then haha, but i guess it has +1 pro aspect atm for sure!
