What we don’t treat

Doctor Care Anywhere is not an emergency medical service so we don’t treat emergencies. If you think you have a medical emergency, please call 111/999 or go to an A&E in the UK.

Here are some examples of medical emergencies we don’t treat:

• Difficulty in breathing or severe shortness of breath
• Chest pain/suspected heart attack
• Suspected stroke or seizures
• Severe pain especially of sudden onset
• Severe infections
• Obstetric or pregnancy complications
• Severe bleeding
• Serious trauma to head, spine or limbs
  (e.g. broken bones or burns)
• Severe mental health concerns
  (e.g. self harm, suicidal thoughts or psychosis)
• Dental issues (if our GPs identify that your symptoms are related to a dental issue they will sign post you to dental services for further assessment)
