Webdoctor.ie opens first physical clinic in Dublin after decade of digital GP care

Ireland's leading online GP service has opened its first in-person clinic in Dublin, marking a significant shift from a purely digital model to a hybrid primary care offering.

According to a report by EIN News, Webdoctor.ie opened its first physical clinic at Clifton Court, Fitzwilliam Street Lower, Dublin 2, having delivered more than one million online consultations since its establishment. The clinic will operate Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, with patients able to book online, walk in, or combine both online and in-person care depending on their clinical needs.

The clinic offers face-to-face GP consultations alongside nurse-led care, blood tests, heart health diagnostics, women's and men's health services, weight management, travel medicine, and GP-led dermatology. Webdoctor.ie's Medihive health technology platform will underpin the clinic's operations, connecting digital and in-person patient records and pathways.

Gareth Lambe, CEO of Webdoctor.ie, said: "The future of primary care isn't about a choice between digital consultations OR in-person, it is about providing a hybrid offering to patients, using our Medihive health technology platform to orchestrate the most effective patient pathway."

Dr Marie-Louise Cassidy, Chief Medical Officer, added: "Our new clinic, powered by our software, offers our patients flexibility: online when you want, in person when you need, with a digital health record that works for both."

The clinic opens against the backdrop of sustained pressure on Ireland's public healthcare system, with private GP services experiencing growing demand. For private healthcare operators, Webdoctor.ie's model illustrates how digitally native providers are increasingly moving to capture a broader share of primary care by layering physical infrastructure onto established online platforms.

The expansion positions Webdoctor.ie as a hybrid primary care provider at a time when patient expectations around access, convenience, and continuity of care are reshaping how GP services are structured and delivered across Ireland.
