HEALTH APP SOUTH AFRICA
A health app should connect the whole journey — not only one appointment.
A useful health platform should make it easier to enter care, understand the next step and keep continuity after the first interaction. Medtimes is designed around that connected journey rather than a single isolated consultation.
What a health app should not pretend to do
- Replace emergency services
- Guarantee a diagnosis from a short form
- Make treatment decisions without an appropriately registered professional
- Claim that every health need can be handled remotely
Start with Medtimes
Use Medtimes to start with the health need rather than choosing a clinical department yourself.

Can I start care online with Medtimes Health?
Yes. Medtimes provides digital starting points for appropriate non-emergency care, tests and health journeys. Whether the next step stays remote depends on the actual care need.
Does Medtimes Health provide physical care?
When a Medtimes journey needs sample collection, a home visit or another supported physical step, fulfilment can be coordinated through Doorstep Health where appropriate and available.
Is Medtimes Health an emergency service?
No. Medtimes is not an emergency service. People with urgent or life-threatening symptoms should use the appropriate emergency service.
