Ever wondered how you can easily see a doctor when you live in a van? We did too, but there’s answer…

Before we embarked on a UK summer adventure in our van we did wonder about doctors and how - if we needed to - we’d see a one easily. Because of these thoughts, we pre-empted a few things and I (Abbie) stocked up on my asthma inhalers, just to ease the stress that can sometimes come with being in a van!

After a few months of van life, Medicspot got in touch… what a game changing idea for those that also live / travel for weeks in their van - it’s a revolutionary and modern way to get GP services.

Medicspot deal with the latest technology which allow doctors to remotely examine you, listen to heart and lung sounds, look into the throat, and measure blood oxygen levels - how high tech is that!

What do Medicspot cover?

Appointments - You can book a private appointment at hundreds of Medicspot private doctor clinics.

Prescriptions - Search any treatment, medication, request, or blood test to see how Medicspot can help. Plus, you’re able to collect your prescription at the pharmacy

Referrals - On-going care is covered and they can also help with specialist referral letters

Sick notes - Medicspot Doctors can write up ‘fit for work’ notes if needed

They also offer PCR and antigen travel COVID-19 tests, so if you need a fit-to-fly test for some upcoming travels then they have all the practical stuff covered too!

Medicspot really is a genius way to talk to a doctor, get prescriptions and that initial understanding of what’s happening when you feel unwell FAST. It’s worth the cost as knowing you have that offer a certain peace of mind.

Obviously, this is our experience and something that works great for us however if you do suffer from more chronic illnesses then you need to do what’s best for your situation and health.

Usually the annual fee is £149 however, Medicspot have kindly given us a discount of £50 off to share with you all - so you’ll pay £99 with our referral code - find out more here.
