Dean H, Indiana
“This was amazing when I ended up with flu symptoms after immediate care was closed for the weekend. Prescription was called into my pharmacy and I was able to pick it up and start shortly after they opened!”
Lynn M
“I used it. Much easier than I thought. Quick response and had antibiotics sent to the pharmacy in under 5 minutes for sinusitis. Love that you can get answers quicker. Thank you, Dr. Stillson!”
Angela D, Indiana
“My adult son just used this for a sinus infection. It would have cost him $120 just to walk into his Dr office! Instead, he paid $20 and the cost of a prescription! A huge savings in both time and money!” [Note: Price changed 12/1/25]
Mary W, Indiana
“I am extremely satisfied with it. It has saved me time and money and got me on an antibiotic quickly so I could begin recovery. Even during a holiday weekend. I was highly impressed.”
Tammy P, Indiana
“I highly recommend this. Dr Tod Stillson was my doctor for many years. I used this a while back and it was so easy. Had an antibiotic called to my pharmacy under 30 minutes.”
Susan S
“I used ChatRx last week for the first time. It was very easy to use. The diagnosis was very quick and accurate and the treatment was correct! The prescription for the antibiotic was sent to the pharmacy that I requested immediately! This is genius! Such a time saver!”
