At the touch of a button, you can schedule an appointment and speak to a doctor face-to-face to get important diagnosis, prescriptions and care instructions so you or your child can start to feel better, faster.
As a practicing Emergency Room Doctor, William Cherniak has seen first-hand how the lack of options to in-person care negatively impact patients, families, and doctors.
Federal US data shows that up to 97% of ER visits for children ended with families being sent home and children not requiring an admission to hospital. While some medications and treatments are only available in the ER, many patients could have been treated as outpatients from the comfort of their homes, reducing wait-times and keeping the ER more free for those are most-ill / need it the most.
An average ER visit costs about $2,000, which is costly for patients, health systems, and insurance companies alike. And many aren’t necessary. With Rocket Doctor, Dr. Cherniak is creating an accessible and comfortable way for patients and families to access the care they need. Rocket Doctor sets out to dramatically improve patient experience, diagnosis, and healthcare overall.

An innovative solution to an age-old problem
There is no great way to receive healthcare today. It’s expensive, over-crowded and under-funded. We think that’s a huge problem.
Rocket Doctor brings fully-licensed and board-certified doctors to your living room through the power of telemedicine. So you can get the diagnosis and care you need faster, more affordably, and more comprehensively.
We’re here to work with Doctors to make healthcare modern and efficient. For everyone.
