What if my kid has something serious?
This is every parent's fear. Our system is built to catch what matters. If your child's symptoms suggest something more serious than a common infection, we won't sell you a $25 visit. We'll tell you to get emergency care.
In our validation testing, 0 emergencies were missed. Zero.
We'd rather tell you to get emergency care than miss something that matters. That's not a limitation. That's the point.
Because Sick Kids Don't Wait for Business Hours.
Strep throat at 10 PM. Pink eye before school. UTI on a Sunday.
You don’t need to drag everyone to urgent care. You don’t need to burn a sick day. You don’t need to spend $150 for someone to confirm what you already suspected.
Treat your kids, your spouse, your parents, and even yourself.
All from one account. All for $25 each.
Your kids, your spouse, your parents - even yourself. Strep throat for your daughter. UTI for you.
Sinus infection for your husband. Flu for your parent. All for $25 each.
One platform, one account, same physician oversight for everyone.
No copays. No surprise bills. No insurance required. Just $25 if treatment is appropriate.
Every Case is Reviewed by a Licensed Physician
This is where ChatRx is different from most telehealth.
Not a chatbot making decisions. Not an algorithm-only system. Not NP-led care.
Dr. Tod Stillson, or one of his medical team physicians, personally oversees every case, using clinical guidelines and your specific medical history to determine the right treatment plan.
Why does this matter?
Much “telehealth” is either algorithm-only or NP-led. ChatRx is physician-led. That’s not a marketing claim: it’s how we operate.
What We Treat
ChatRx treats 39 common infections – the kind of thing you’d normally go to urgent care for.
ENT & Respiratory: Flu, Sinus Infection, Bronchitis, Strep Throat, COVID-19, Ear Infection, etc
Skin & Eye: Pink Eye (Conjunctivitis), Cold Sores, Skin Infections, Ringworm, Impetigo, etc
Men’s and Women’s Health: UTI (Urinary Tract Infection), Yeast Infection, Bacterial Vaginosis, etc
Viral Illnesses: Oral Herpes, Flu. COVID-19, Shingles, Viral URIs, Viral Gastroenteritis, etc
STI Screening & Treatment: Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Herpes etc
What We Don't Treat
ChatRx is not for everything. That’s intentional.
We don’t treat:
- Chronic conditions (diabetes, hypertension, etc.)
- Mental health conditions
- Emergencies or life-threatening symptoms
- Anything requiring physical examination
- Controlled substances
Why we’re telling you this: Because a system that claims to treat everything is a system you can’t trust.
We stay within our scope. If your situation needs more than we can offer, we’ll tell you – and we’ll point you to the right kind of care.
Doctor-Reviewed Care. No Appointments Needed.
Meet Dr. Tod Stillson
I’m Dr. Tod Stillson. I’ve practiced medicine in Indiana for 30+ years. I’ve seen what happens when people can’t get care – they wait too long, they go to the ER for something simple, or they skip treatment entirely because they can’t afford it or can’t get time off.
ChatRx exists because I got tired of watching that happen.
A licensed physician reviews every single case. Not a chatbot. Not an algorithm. Me, or a licensed physician on my team.
Here’s what I promise you:
- If we can help you, we will – quickly, affordably, and honestly.
- If you don’t need medication, I’ll tell you.
- If something serious is going on, I’ll tell you to get emergency care.
That’s how medicine should work.
Who is ChatRx For?
ChatRx is for people who:
- Need care at 10 pm when the doctor’s office is closed
- Can’t take a day off work to sit in urgent care for 3 hours
- Don’t have insurance or have a high deductible
- Want real medical care, not a chatbot with a prescription pad
- Are tired of being rushed, upsold, or dismissed
ChatRx is NOT for people who:
- Have a medical emergency (call 911)
- Need ongoing management of chronic conditions
- Want guaranteed prescriptions regardless of appropriateness
- Have conditions that require face-to-face visits
- Need controlled substances

A Physician Reviews Your Case
Every single case is reviewed by a licensed physician. Not a nurse practitioner. Not an AI making decisions on its own. A doctor.

We’re not a “prescription mill.” We’re not trying to convert every visitor into a sale. We’ll always try to give you the right answer. Sometimes that answer is medication. Sometimes it’s “you have a virus, rest and fluids.” Sometimes it’s “this is beyond what we can treat – here’s where to go.” Antibiotic stewardship is one of our core operating principles.
All three of those are wins. That’s how we measure success.
