San Ġwann sits just inland of St Julian's, a short drive from the clinic in Paceville. By video the distance does not matter: Dr Kevin Navarro Gera answers within minutes from 8am to midnight.
After work, not instead of it
Most people only notice how ill they are once they get home from work. Consultations run to midnight for that reason, at the same fee as mid-morning.
Being seen in person
If the doctor needs to examine you, appointments at the clinic inside Potter's Pharmacy are booked from the app or the website.
How a consultation works
- Open the app or the website and give your name and email once. There is no password to remember.
- Say in a line or two what is wrong. A photo often helps — a rash, a swelling, a test result.
- Call. Dr Kevin Navarro Gera answers within minutes when he is free; otherwise you wait in line and your phone rings at your turn.
- Anything he writes up afterwards reaches you in the app and by email, usually within minutes.
- The €25 is settled at Potter's Pharmacy when you collect. Nothing is taken from a card during the call.
What a consultation can cover
The same things a GP sees in a morning: a chest or urine infection, a rash, a migraine, food poisoning, an ear that will not clear, a repeat of something you already take.
Where the assessment supports it, the doctor writes a prescription, and any licensed Maltese pharmacy dispenses it. Where a consultation shows that someone is unfit for work or for an activity, he puts that in writing too. Both are clinical judgements reached during the consultation.
A screen is not enough for everything. A wound that needs stitching, a suspected fracture, chest pain, anything needing hands or equipment — the doctor says so during the call and sends you where you need to go.
