★★★★★
I never called because didn't want to even when I had COVID.hospital job
★★☆☆☆
So far it doesn't do anything useful. My doctor doesn't know of its existence. It is impossible to get an appointment with the doctor. It would have a use if, instead of saying you need to see a doctor it actually contacted the practice and said you have a sick patient, and you need to let them get past the receptionist
