How We Work
The Speedy Health Process
Speedy Health is committed to providing you with the best possible service and the safest, most effective treatment. Our ordering process is quick, discreet and tailored to your lifestyle needs. We guarantee that every phase of our service is completely confidential, from consultation to delivery, so you can be sure your details are fully protected.
Step 1 - Select medication
You can indicate the medication you wish to purchase ('preferred medication') and select the appropriate dosage and quantity to proceed to the consultation. You must then fill in a consultation for the condition and our doctors will decide the treatment options that would be the most suitable to you. Please note that the doctors are fully independent and the medication they may prescribe could be an alternative that is better suited to your needs.
Our online confidential ordering process includes the following steps:
- Online Consultation
- Address and billing details
- Payment details
- Order confirmation
Please note that when we ask for your payment details, we only preauthorise your card with our bank. We will only take payment if the prescribing doctor approves your consultation and issues a prescription.
Step 2 - Fill out a medical form
We ask all patients to fill out an online consultation, which consists of a set of questions about your medical history. This consultation form is then reviewed by one of our doctors to ensure the medication is the best option for you.
Whilst we provide a secure medical consultation, we advise our patients that the internet should not replace a face-to-face consultation with their doctor, and recommend that they do so, if they can.
We are aware that sometimes medical consultations via forms and telephone calls may not give a doctor enough information to make a correct judgment, and a physical check-up may allow for a better diagnosis.
If deemed necessary, our doctors may ask for a one-to-one consultation via telephone or video-conference.
Step 3 – Medical review
Your consultation will then be reviewed by our doctors. If the treatment is right for you, a prescription will be issued and forwarded to our pharmacy.
The doctors will always ensure that all consultations are thoroughly assessed before issuing a prescription to ensure your health and safety is never compromised whilst using our service.
In some cases, where your preferred medication may not be suitable for you due to health concerns, the doctor will get in touch and help you to find the right solution. At this stage, you may be suggested treatments more suitable to you, or told to visit your own doctor face to face.
Step 4 - Medication sent from pharmacy
The pharmacy will then prepare your medication according to the prescription and dispatch it to you via free delivery.
Once your prescription has been issued, your medication will be dispensed via our own registered pharmacy. Your medication is taken from the shelf, date and batch numbers are checked and the required labels are printed.
Our pharmacy perform the final checks against the prescription and then your medication is placed into a discreet package ready for free next-day delivery*.
How does the consultation process work?
If you submit a medical consultation, the doctor reviews the information provided to help form a diagnosis. The diagnosis and possible range of treatments are then emailed back together with unique log-in details so that you may order from Speedy Health.
If the doctor suggests a prescription treatment(s), you will be able to login through our website and provide payment details. A prescription is then issued and a UK pharmacy will dispense your medication, sending it discreetly to the address you had specified via next day special delivery at no extra charge.
The entire consultation is free and without any obligation. Your details remain confidential and unlike with other companies, are never sold to any 3rd party organisations.
It is important that you provide correct contact details – the doctor may want to ask a few more questions to help his diagnosis of your case. If either the wrong email address or telephone number is given, you cannot be notified of the results and suggested treatments.
Step 1 - Fill out a short medical form
Begin your free consultation by answering a few questions about your condition.
We ask all patients to fill out an online consultation, which consists of a brief set of questions about your medical history. This consultation form is then checked by one of our registered doctors to ensure the medication is suitable for you to use.
Whilst we provide a secure medical consultation, we advise our patients that the internet should not replace a face-to-face consultation with their doctor, and recommend that they do so, if they can.
We are aware that sometimes medical consultations via forms and telephone calls may not give a doctor enough information to make a correct judgment, and a physical check-up may allow for a better diagnosis.
Our Doctors' service offer telephone advice to all those who need it, and our Doctors will, depending on each case, offer face-to-face meetings and access to a video-conferencing consultation.
Step 2 - A registered doctor will review it
After assessing your medical history a registered doctor will offer you the appropriate medications.
Our doctors ensure that all consultations are thoroughly checked before issuing a prescription to ensure your health and safety is never compromised whilst using our service.
Once our doctor has gone over our medical details, an electric prescription is that produced and sent over to our UK registered pharmacy.
However, in some cases, where your selected treatment may not be suitable for you due to health concerns, our patient support team will get in touch and help you to find the right solution.
Step 3 - Order treatment for free delivery
Once approved, you will be able to order your treatment for free next day delivery.
Once your prescription has been issued, your medication will be dispensed via our own certified UK pharmacy. This is almost the same process that takes place in a hospital; your medication is taken from the shelf, date and batch numbers are checked and the required labels are printed.
Our pharmacy perform the final checks against the prescription and then your medication is placed into a discreet package ready for free next day delivery.

What should I look out for when buying?
Unfortunately, not all of the websites who claim to offer a similar service to us are what they appear to be and it is important for you to be conscious of this when choosing a website to take care of your medical needs. If you do come across a website which you are unsure of simply ask yourself a few of the following questions;
Do they offer illegal generics or "soft tab" medications?
Generic medications are safe to use, however, counterfeits are often sourced from countries such as India and China. These medications are not put through the same rigorous clinical tests as genuine treatments to ensure efficacy and safety and can be dangerous to your health.
Are they based in the UK and do they have a telephone number and address to support this?
Websites like ours should be based and operate within the UK are required to adhere to legislation relating to the ways in which their services operate. Regulated sites are the only sources from which you can be sure of the authenticity of the treatment you receive.
If you have any questions about the services we offer or require any assistance, you can give us a call on 020 3322 9966.
Do they require you to complete a consultation before you can purchase medication or is it not required?
In the UK you are legally required to undergo a consultation with a registered doctor who will decide whether or not you are suitable for a course of treatment and can issue a prescription if required. However, any website which allows you to purchase your treatment without this process is operating illegally and recklessly. Prescribing without the information that we require could result in serious health issues or even death if you suffer from any conditions or take a medication which would interfere and react with your treatment.
How expensive or cheap are the medications that they offer?
Every day we receive a seemingly never-ending stream of emails offering all kinds of medication at as low as a few pounds per pill. These medications will be illegal copies of the authentic treatments that sites like us can offer. These treatments can not only be harmful to you but you may also be putting your personal information at risk especially if you got to this site as a result of a spam email you have received.
Is their website secure and do they encrypt your personal information?
It's important to make sure of this when purchasing anything online. To check whether or not your information is secure just look at the web address bar and look out for addresses starting with https:// when you are asked or required to input information, which ensures that only you and the website you are using to purchase is secure. You may also like to look for the green bar that can be seen in the address bar on Speedy Health. This shows that the website offers the highest levels of security available to retailers online.

Do they offer illegal generics, or "soft tab" medications?
Speedy Health and websites who operate like us to not offer any of these types of medicines. Generic medications are normally safe to use, however, generic versions of patented medications such as Viagra are illegal. These medications alongside counterfeits are often sourced from countries such as India and China, where they are produced in substandard conditions. These medications are not put through the same rigorous clinical tests as genuine treatments to ensure efficacy and safety, and can be dangerous to your health.

Age Verification
As an online healthcare provider, it is important that we confirm your identity and that you are at least 18 years of age. Checks are carried out against information you provide including but not limited to your name, address and date of birth on national identity registers at the time of registration and may be carried out on future occasions should there be any discrepancies in your details as time go on. To make the process as easy as possible, all checks are carried out behind the scenes as part of the registration and ordering process, requiring no action on your part. However, it is important that you provide your personal address, even if your delivery address is different, at the time of ordering.
Should we be unable to verify your age based on the details you have provided, you will be contacted by a member of our customer service team to discuss other options to verify your age.
Additional Information
Our service consists of two main parts: the online medical consultation and the issuing of a prescription and treatment. Each of these parts are separate, and the completion of a consultation will be subject to an approval process by a doctor before a prescription can be issued. The entire consultation process (excluding the issuing of the prescription, and the dispensing and delivery of the medication) lasts between 20 and 25 minutes and may last longer if more information is required. The consultation process is outlined below:
- Completion of the online medical consultation. Should we identify any irregularities, you may not be able to fill in the medical questionnaire and you may be contacted to verify some or all of the information you have provided. At this stage, it may be necessary to arrange a telephone or video call to complete the process.
- Initial review of online medical consultation data by doctor.
- Second review of online medical consultation data by doctor.
- Issuing of prescription if the prescribing doctor is satisfied that the course of treatment is suitable for the patient.
