Udok is designed to give you access to healthcare when you need it most.


Standard Operating Hours

  • Every day: 06:00 - 20:00 (SAST)

During these hours, you can book either an express consultation (first available doctor) or choose your last/commonly seen doctor from your dashboard options.


After-Hours Availability

  • Outside of these hours, the consultation service is closed and the buttons to book a consultation will be greyed out, preventing you from initiating a consultation until 6am the next morning.

  • You can still log into your Dashboard to:

    • Update your profile and medical aid details.
    • View past consultations, access documents and notes.

Public Holidays

  • Public holidays: 06:00 - 20:00 (SAST)
  • Public holiday after-hours consultation fee (06:00 - 20:00): R450.00
  • Doctor availability may be more limited.
  • If there is any change to hours (e.g., seasonal hours or special closures), it will be communicated via the app and our Help Centre.

After-Hours Consultation Fees

  • Saturday to Sunday (14:00 - 20:00): R450.00
  • Public holidays (06:00 - 20:00): R450.00
