  • Unlimited clinical messaging
  • Typical first reply in ~15 minutes
  • Send photos, labs or pharmacy details
  • The same team every time — no re-explaining

  • Interaction checks across your medications
  • Side-effect triage
  • Plain-language explanations of results

Scope of care

What we can and can’t do.

  • “I have a rash — should I worry?”
  • “Can I take these two together?”
  • Refills for stable, ongoing medications
  • Understanding a lab or test result
  • Deciding whether you need to be seen in person

Not a fit

  • Medical emergencies — call 911
  • Controlled substances
  • Chest pain, stroke symptoms or trouble breathing
  • In-person exams, imaging or procedures

Alive MD is not for medical emergencies. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Alive MD is a subscription membership for non-emergency clinical support and does not replace your primary care physician. Prescription and refill decisions are made solely by a licensed physician after clinical review; controlled substances are not prescribed. Services are available only where our clinicians are licensed.
