We had a very disappointing experience…
We had a very disappointing experience using Doctor on Demand for my minor daughter. On multiple occasions, her therapist failed to attend scheduled appointments with no notice, no call, and no follow-up. These repeated no-call/no-shows were disruptive and unacceptable, especially for a child receiving mental health care. During our most recent appointment, I experienced technical issues accessing the platform and contacted Doctor on Demand immediately to report the problem. Despite notifying support in real time, I was still charged $129 for the appointment. Resolving this charge became another ordeal, involving nonfunctional payment links and repeated attempts to get help by phone and message with little meaningful support. I was also alarmed by guidance provided early in our care. Due to my divorce, staff advised me to share my login credentials with my ex-husband so he could access our daughter’s care. This directly contradicts basic HIPAA privacy standards and placed my personal protected health information at risk. Overall, our experience reflected poor communication, improper billing practices, and inadequate attention to patient privacy. As a result, we have discontinued using Doctor on Demand. I would not recommend this service, particularly for families seeking reliable and professional care for minors.
