3. Professional standards and qualifications
Online Doctor Services involve the provision of information, advice, testing and treatment for a range of medical conditions. To ensure quality care, our clinicians will also follow up with some patients. Services are provided by qualified doctors and independent prescribing pharmacists (collectively ‘clinicians’) who are registered with the General Medical Council or the General Pharmaceutical Council in the UK. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission, the English independent healthcare regulator, under registration number 1-101725251. This registration permits us to prescribe medicines and provide testing services without meeting patients face to face. Additionally Expert Health Limited is registered with The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority, the Northern Irish independent healthcare regulator, under registration number 11992. All of our clinicians comply with the requirements of their professional bodies, the standards set by the healthcare regulators we are registered with and, importantly, the General Medical Council guidelines on remote prescribing.

6.1.4 Prescribe in the best interest of the patient

6.2 There are certain medicines that will not be issued by clinicians in any circumstances, which include:
6.2.1 controlled medication, such as strong painkillers, anxiolytics, sedatives and hypnotics and

7.5 Decisions at Online Doctor Services

7.6 Abusive Behaviour

7.7 Notify your GP
With your consent and provided you send us in writing the name and contact information of your GP, we will always offer to inform your GP of any medicines that our clinicians prescribe. For select services we are obliged to notify your GP of the treatment we provide to you. However, we will always offer to notify your GP of any medicines that we have prescribed, but if you do not consent to us contacting your GP, it is your responsibility to notify your GP. If you decide not to notify your GP, it is important that you keep a record of any medicines that we have prescribed.
Please note that in emergency situations, we may need to contact a healthcare professional, social services or the emergency services without your consent, regardless of whether or not you have refused your consent for us to notify your GP.

Ordering Medicines and Online Doctor Services
8. Information and advice
8.1 The information and advice provided by Online Doctor Service is based on the information you supply to us. It is your responsibility to ensure this. You accept that failure to provide information that is correct and complete (whether intentionally or not) will affect the information and advice we give to you and the medicines we supply to you and, as such, may have consequences for which we are not responsible.
8.2 We aim to respond to all requests for information and advice within two business days – business days being Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.
8.3 Follow up:
8.3.1 Our clinical team may contact you to check how you are getting on after using the service.
8.3.2 One of our team may also contact you for feedback about your service experience to help us improve to ensure we meet your needs.
8.4 From time to time we use anonymised or pseudonymised information (this means it is impossible to identify individuals) to carry out an evaluation of our service, to report on and improve the standards of clinical care and service we provide, and to help inform good clinical practice.
9. Other services
9.1 Testing services
9.1.1 Testing services cover only those conditions and infections that are specified for that particular testing service on this website. In particular, any testing services reliant upon a urine sample or a vaginal swab will not detect any infections in the throat or anus. All tests that are offered through this website are from reputable laboratories and are of the standards expected for the clinical purpose but as with all tests, no test can be 100% accurate and all tests are subject to a ‘window period’. The ‘window period’ for each test is made clear on the website.
9.1.2 All diagnostic laboratories, point of care test providers and non-NHS testing services are required by law to report test results to PHE.
9.2 Subscription plans
9.2.1 By signing up to one of our subscription plans, you agree to be charged the repeat payment of the specified amount from the payment card that you used when signing up to the Service. This is known as a Continuous Payment Authority. If your payment fails and you do not update your card details when prompted to do so, your plan will automatically terminate.
9.2.2 You can cancel your plan at any time by contacting our Patient Advisory Team and you will not be charged a cancellation fee. However, if your treatment has already been sent out when you attempt to cancel, you will still be charged for that treatment.
9.2.3 Our clinicians have the right to review your suitability for your subscription plan at any given time and can terminate your plan if they deem you unsuitable for the service.
9.2.4 You must complete a clinical review either every six months or every year depending on the plan you have signed up for. If you do not complete the review before your next treatment is due, your plan will be automatically terminated and you will be notified of this.
9.3 All treatments issued under a subscription plan are delivered via the Evri standard delivery service (unless otherwise specified in relation to the plan).
10. Pricing
All prices on our website are in pounds sterling and include VAT unless expressly stated otherwise. We take care to ensure that all pricing information on our website is accurate but occasionally there may be an error. If an error has occurred and the price charged is too high, we will identify all those that have overpaid and refund the difference.
11. Concluding a binding contract
When we receive an order from you to purchase goods or services from us, we will confirm that we have received the order by sending a confirmation email to the contact email address that you supplied. Your order is an offer to purchase an item and will not be binding on us until we either prescribe your medicine, dispatch a test kit or other goods, or otherwise commence a clinical service, whichever occurs first. Professional codes of conduct and legal restrictions may limit the number and frequency of any item we are permitted to supply to you and, as such, we have no obligation to supply quantities exceeding the relevant permitted maximum and will charge only for those we do supply. We reserve the right to reject any order.
12. Delivery costs
Patients can choose between next-day delivery charged at £4.95, or FREE Standard Delivery for test kits, goods or medicines that are sent in the post.
13. Payment and refunds
In providing payment card details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the card and authorise us, or our payment service provider, to take payment in full for the items in your order and any associated delivery fees and any other charges that become due to us under these terms and conditions. The transaction will appear on your bank or card statement as 'Lloyds Online'.
Refunds, if applicable, will only be made using the payment gateway (e.g. Sagepay) to the card originally used for payment. Refunds may take up to five working days to appear on a card statement.
All of our prescriptions are valid for six months from the prescription date. When you place an order for a medicine and nominate a pharmacy for collection, if our clinicians approve your order and prescribe, you must collect the medicine within six months. After this time, you will not be entitled to a refund.
If you choose to pay via PayPal, then your use of the PayPal service is governed by the PayPal user agreement in force from time to time. Please refer to the PayPal user agreement for details of the terms and conditions applicable to payments and refunds processed through PayPal.
14. Authorisation of orders for medicines
Our clinicians can only make a decision as to whether it is in the best interests of the patient to receive a medicine when the clinician has all relevant information. On occasion, this may require the clinician to ask the patient for additional information further to the information that was provided in response to an online questionnaire.
15. Non-availability/substitutes
If a patient’s chosen pharmacy is unable to fulfil a prescription or supply goods ordered, we will contact the patient to agree an alternative pharmacy that we have already identified as having the item available. The original prescription/order will be revoked, and a new prescription/order will be sent to the new pharmacy.
16. Delivery of orders
We will dispense all medicines and supply all goods. Medicines and goods for delivery by post will be dispatched normally within one working day of the clinician authorising the supply of the medicine.
Most medicines and goods for delivery by post are sent out using our delivery partner Evri within one to two working days (next-day delivery) or three to five working days (standard delivery). Delivery time frames are based on the time orders are approved by our clinical team, please see below for delivery cut off information.
If you’re not present when Evri deliver your treatment, they will:
- post your parcel through your letter box
- deliver to neighbour
- deliver to your chosen safe place
If none of these options are feasible, Evri will attempt to deliver to you twice more, on consecutive working days.
Please note, if you choose to have your order delivered to a neighbour or left in a safe place it is your sole responsibility to ensure that the persons accepting the delivery on your behalf, delivers the medicines/goods to you. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that the safe place you’ve chosen is secure and out of public view.
Please also note that if you choose to divert your order to a ParcelShop, the order may be delayed by up to 72 hours.
We have no responsibility to you if your order is stolen, damaged, lost or opened without your consent as a result of your safe place/deliver to neighbour/deliver to ParcelShop preferences and providing that Evri have provided proof of delivery. We will not issue a refund in any such case.
By selecting delivery, you acknowledge and agree that parcels may be posted through your letterbox if they meet the size requirements. Once the parcel has been delivered through the letterbox, Online Doctor is not liable for any loss, theft, or damage to the parcel. It is your responsibility to ensure that your letterbox is secure and that no harm (for example to the parcel itself or to a child) will result from delivery using that method.

19. Notification of errors
You should check the content of each delivery promptly upon receipt. If you believe that items have been sent to you in error you should contact us immediately via your online patient record.
Cancellation rights
You have a statutory ‘cooling-off’ right which entitles you to cancel your order within 14 days of delivery of the goods in your order (certain exceptions apply) or within 14 days of the date of any agreement to provide Services to you. You also have rights in respect of items that are damaged on receipt or faulty. Details of these rights and how to exercise these rights are set out in the email we send to you to confirm your order and below.
All cancellations must be received and reviewed by us because given the nature of the goods or medicines we may deliver to you it is not always possible for us to accept your cancellation request.
20. Prescription Medicines
The statutory “cooling off” right does not apply to the supply of prescription medicines and the supply of other medicines by a health care professional as part of a health service. When you place an order for medicines or take up a service that involves the prescribing of medicines this will require us to perform an assessment of your clinical suitability for the medicines before they can be approved for supply (“Clinical Assessment”). When you place an order, you agree to us commencing this Clinical Assessment and once this Clinical Assessment has been completed, you will have no legal right to cancel your order.
Examples of this service are: vaccination services and prescription services or medicated weight loss injection treatments including Saxenda®, Wegovy® and Mounjaro®.
21. Test kits
For unused postal test kits and goods that do not require a prescription, you can change your mind and cancel your order provided you do so within 14 days of delivery; we may not refund you in full (please see paragraph 28 below). For orders containing multiple goods/test kit items, this will be within 14 days of delivery of the last test kit or goods item.
Examples of these test kits are: STI, COVID-19 or blood test kits.
22. Other goods
For goods that do not require a prescription or consultation, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receipt.
For orders with multiple goods items, this will be within 14 days of delivery of the last test kit or goods item.
23. Reasons why you cannot change your mind.
You cannot change your mind about any order for items which are sealed for health protection or hygiene reasons once these have been unsealed after delivery to you, for example where a test kit has been tampered with following delivery i.e. it has been used or opened. We will not be able to accept any returns or issue refunds for such test kits.
24. The deadline for changing your mind.
If you change your mind about a product that is not a prescription or a pharmacy medicine you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day we deliver it. If your purchase is split into several deliveries over different days, the period runs from the day after the last delivery. If you change your mind about a service, you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day on which you ordered it or, if later, the day on which we confirm acceptance of your order.
25. How to let us know.
To let us know you want to change your mind, contact our Patient Advisory Team or through your secure online Patient Record.
26. You have to return the product at your own cost.
You have to return your product to us within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind. Returns are at your own cost. You should return a prescription product/medicine to any pharmacy for destruction. Please use the returns envelope supplied a test kit to return a test kit. Any other product, please return to LPOD Rx, Mezzanine Floor, AAH, Woburn Road Winwick Quay, Warrington WA2 8UH.
27.We only refund the standard cost of delivering your items to you.
We do not refund any extra you have paid for express delivery or delivery at a particular time and we do not refund the cost of returning items to us.
28. Why we may reduce your refund.
If you cancel an order for our products or services after we have provided any form of Clinical Assessment but before medication has been sent to you, we may charge you our standard administration fee to cover the costs of that Clinical Assessment. Your refund will be reduced by this amount.
If you handle any over the counter product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product's condition is not "as new", price tags have been removed, the product-branded packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due.
29. When and how we refund you.
If you tell us you have changed your mind about an item that has not been delivered we refund you as soon as possible and within 14 days.
If you are sending an item back to us, we refund you within 14 days of receiving it (or receiving evidence you have sent it to us).
If you cancel a service before we have started to provide this to you we refund you within 14 days of receiving your cancellation request.
We refund you by the method you used for payment. We do not charge a fee for the refund. You will see the transaction as “Lloyds Online” on your bank or card statement.
30. Our right to cancel
30.1 It is at our clinicians’ discretion to provide treatment to you. Where a clinician refuses to administer any treatment requested, your patient record will be updated with a full explanation as to why this has been refused. You can obtain a copy of your patient record at any time on request.
In these circumstance where payment has been taken, we will issue a refund to you to the payment card that you used for the original transaction.
30.2 Wegovy® Saxenda® and Mounjaro®
When we provide a Clinical Assessment to you for the prescription of Wegovy® Saxenda® or Mounjaro® a condition of issuing a first prescription to you is that you submit to us a video demonstrating your BMI in accordance with the instructions that we provide to you. You will be required to resubmit your BMI video every 12 months whilst receiving this treatment. We take payment for the Wegovy® Saxenda® or Mounjaro® prescription before the video is submitted and the prescription will be issued to our warehouse on receipt of payment. If you do not submit your BMI video to us within 6 months of your Clinical Assessment your prescription will expire or be cancelled and you will not be entitled to a refund. If your BMI Video (when assessed by our clinicians) demonstrates that you are not eligible for Wegovy® Saxenda® or Mounjaro® we will issue to you a full refund of the fee.
30.3 In other circumstances we may not be able to accept your order for example where:
30.3.1 There is no availability of the medicines you require;
30.3.2 You are not eligible to use our services;
30.3.3 There is an issue with us taking your payment; or
30.3.4 The pricing provided by us is incorrect.
In these circumstances, where payment has been taken, we will issue a refund to you to the payment card that you used for the original transaction.
