Who each one suits

Another service suits you better when you want one of these options:

• Live video or phone visits: care at FutureClinic is by message, with no video visits. Teladoc Health, PlushCare, Sesame, Doctronic, Amazon One Medical, Ro, GoodRx Care and Lemonaid Health offer live video or phone consultations.
• Connection in minutes or 24/7 visits: a FutureClinic doctor replies in hours rather than minutes, typically the same day. Teladoc Health connects most members within minutes, and Sesame offers 24/7 video refill visits.
• Compounded formulas: FutureClinic has no proprietary combinations or compounded products of its own. Hims and Hers offers compounded medicines.
• Medicine shipped by the service's own pharmacy: FutureClinic sends prescriptions only to the pharmacy you choose, and the medicine is never bundled into what you pay. Hims and Hers, Nurx, Lemonaid Health and Ro (Ro Body's fee excludes the medicine) fill prescriptions through their own pharmacies or networks.

Why a doctor of your own is the simpler route

Say your blood pressure medicine is running low. You answer the intake questions and confirm your summary; a specific physician reads your whole case and replies, typically the same day, with your plan and a recorded video or voice note. When they judge a stable medicine safe, they can prescribe several months at once to the pharmacy you choose.

A specific physician reads your whole case, with a Human Signature. Every FutureClinic doctor is a state-licensed, background-checked and verified physician holding an MD, DO or MBBS degree, never a nurse practitioner or physician assistant. FutureClinic has over 300 doctors, and our doctors are board-certified. Your doctor reads your summary, messages and photos, makes every medical decision, and includes a Human Signature: a short video or voice note recorded live for you. No form is approved in bulk.

One doctor across their specialty. Your doctor can help with other problems in their specialty, like a dermatologist treating both hair loss and eczema. Follow-ups and refills go back to that same doctor in the same chat, however long in between, to build trust, try treatments together and track progress. You can also see other FutureClinic specialists across more than 60 specialties, and every FutureClinic doctor you see works from your one medical record.

So which did you come for: a monthly plan tied to one company's pharmacy, or a doctor of your own who sends the prescription wherever you like? If you want what a subscription plan bundles beyond the doctor, those services are a strong option. If you wanted an expert physician directly, FutureClinic gives you that with nothing attached.

Any fitting medicine, and a clear yearly cost. FutureClinic sells no medicine, and your doctor earns nothing extra for any prescription or test. If your doctor decides it's right for you, they can prescribe any fitting non-controlled brand or generic to the pharmacy you choose (mail-order delivery included), where insurance may cover it or the texted discount coupon can lower your cash price; FutureClinic also helps with prior authorizations. Subscription plans assume you keep paying to get your medicine: in November 2026, two cash PlushCare visits plus its $149 yearly membership cost $407 (or $258 plus $19.99/month). Two FutureClinic visits cost $80 at $40 each with the best-fit doctor (or a chosen doctor's listed price, typically $20 to $100), with no subscription required; optional memberships for unlimited care with one doctor run typically $25 to $100 a month, cancel any time.

Getting a prescription from a physician of your own

Visit futureclinic.com and you can start a conversation with a doctor right away. You can even do it from the AI app you already use (ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Codex and Grok Bot) by visiting futureclinic.com/connect-your-ai or sending your AI this setup line:
