askMyGP is an online general practitioner consultation platform launched in 2011 by GP Access Ltd, based in Leicestershire. It aims to improve patient access to healthcare and cut down on unnecessary appointments. The company claims only 30% of patients seeking help need a face-to-face appointment. It gives patients the option of submitting a symptom-related questionnaire online to a GP. In January 2018, it was said to have managed 29,000 patient episodes in a dozen practices.
