### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-11-10, version 1.1.0*

super easy to use and helpful (from a medical student)!

### 5/5 — Helped me quickly

*2025-11-10, version 1.1.0*

Counsel helped me figure out if I needed to go to urgent care which saved me a good amount of time and money too

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2025-11-05, version 1.1.0*

Saves me so much time - instead of waiting for the doctor, I can get medical advice and prescriptions from home!

### 5/5 — Amazing AI Product

*2025-11-04, version 1.1.0*

Very impressed with how good the AI product is. It’s been really catering to me and my health the more I use it.

### 5/5 — Prescription Refill so easy

*2025-11-04, version 1.1.0*

It made refilling my prescription so easy and fast without having to go to a doctors office

### 5/5 — The doctor I always wanted!

*2025-10-29, version 1.1.0*

The app has been unbelievably helpful! I’ve asked the Counsel doctors for help with everything from random health questions to how to rest/recover from a soccer injury. They were able to help me with the right care at a time I needed it most. I’ll keep coming back because the doctor interactions have been great and the app experience is seamless/beautiful. They provide me peace of mind as I have a trusted Dr in my pocket any time I need them.

### 5/5 — Where has this been all my life?!

*2025-10-29, version 1.1.0*

I hate going to the doctor. It’s so expensive and takes all day, I don’t have time for that! Using AI to answer my questions — before I go down an internet diagnosis rabbit hole — and being able to talk to a real doctor was mind blowingly efficient. The doctor was empathetic yet concise, and ordered me a prescription within just a few minutes. I can’t see a future where this is not how we receive healthcare. Offices and wait times are a relic of the past!

### 5/5 — The advice I needed

*2025-10-29, version 1.1.0*

I recently traveled to a high-altitude country, and after returning home, I felt out of breath for a few days. I asked Counsel if I should be concerned, and it immediately provided insight into the potential causes of my symptoms along with recommended next steps.

The best part was that the AI gave personalized advice because I had connected my medical records. It recognized that I’d previously been diagnosed with asthma and even noted the date of my last inhaler prescription. As part of its recommendations, Counsel offered to help refill my inhaler or connect me with a doctor to further discuss my symptoms.

I was able to get peace of mind quickly and easily!

### 5/5 — Favorite way to get care

*2025-10-29, version 1.1.0*

I didn’t want to spend money and time trying to find an in-network doctor for my minor issue, so Counsel was the perfect platform to get help.

Their AI asked great questions and gave me a spot-on preliminary diagnosis. I then added a REAL doctor who reviewed my convo and confirmed the diagnosis with useful follow-up steps.

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2025-10-21, version 1.1.0*

There are very few products that combine medical integrity with accessibility and personalization, and Counsel is surely one of them. I’ve been using the product as a beta tester for a few months and it’s been so helpful at clarifying any health concerns from small wellness tips
to broader questions about health optimization, lab readouts, and symptom management. It feels incredibly personalized with my data and I’m excited to see where it goes!

### 5/5 — Better than ChatGPT

*2025-10-19, version 1.1.0*

I love that this app is able to access to my medical records. In my first chat I was asking questions about my asthma and was amazed that the AI pulled up allergy test results from 8 years ago that I totally forgot about. This is clearly the future of medicine. I’m telling all of my friends & family about it now.

### 5/5 — I can ask anything and get quick and super personalized medical advice

*2025-01-24*

I’m seriously tired of googling health questions and feeling like everything is going to kill me. On the other hand, it takes 2 days just to reach my PCP, so then I just wait everything out. With this app, I’m able to ask serious questions about my chronic conditions and what’s next, and even basic ones like if protein powder is good for me and which ones I should take. The doctors are so fast and empathetic, and because they have my medical records, all the advice is personalized. Thanks!!!

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2025-01-24, version 1.0.2*

Recently hurt my leg and thought I needed to go to urgent care. Worked with a Counsel doctor and they advised me the right care is just to rest. 1 week later and feeling so much better and avoided the $100 urgent care visit!

### 5/5 — A doctor in your corner

*2025-01-05, version 1.0.2*

Counsel has created a way of interacting with doctors feel natural and supportive. With a piece of real, personalized advice about your health just a text away, in a low barrier to entry way, it empowers me to understand my health and navigate the healthcare system much more confidently. All these nagging little concerns about my health that would fester before, now I can get real advice for ME instead of trying to stitch together 100 WebMD or use an unreliable AI chat assistant with no doctor at the other end.

### 5/5 — Amazing service—high quality and reliable

*2024-11-09, version 1.0.1*

Counsel is literally my go-to now for any health related questions or concerns. Dr. Muthu is super responsive and tailors his recommendations based on my medical history. Super reliable and Counsel allows me to get my prescriptions on the go as well.

Would 10/10 recommend. It’s literally having a doctor in your pocket

### 5/5 — So thankful

*2024-11-08*

So thankful that my company offers Counsel! I used to go to Google or WebMD whenever I had a question (skin rash, bug bites, etc) and the answers I got always scared me. Now I just chat my Counsel doctors, send a picture, and get actual solid advice in just a few min.

### 5/5 — Great app, very convenient

*2024-11-01, version 1.0.0*

Injured my ankle and wanted quick medical advice on if I needed an x-ray. The app was very easy to set up and my doctor was very helpful! Responded quickly to my initial message and followed up the next few days. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Quick and simple!

*2024-11-01, version 1.0.0*

This app completely takes the worry and stress out of consulting with a doctor. Getting detailed answers from a trained professional in just minutes feels like magic. Thank you, Counsel Health!

### 1/5 — Terrible app, SCAM

*2026-04-03, version 1.1.0*

They charged me a couple times and I never got advice from a doctor, plus the app barely works

### 1/5 — Bad medical advice

*2025-11-23*

I signed up for this service thinking it would be an awesome AI doctor. In reality, it’s worse than ChatGPT and doesn’t actually give you good care. This app is all chat based care. They don’t know who you are. No video or personal relationship with a provider. The AI gives medical advice that actually prolonged my symptoms. After not recovering, I spoke to a REAL doctor and realized that Counsel was giving me very bad medical advice about a GI issue. I then asked ChatGPT the exact same questions I asked Counsel and it gave me the same advice my non-Counsel doctor gave me but with even more precise and actionable next steps. I followed ChatGPT’s advice and was back to 100% in 2 days after a week of worsening suffering using Counsel. This app is horrible and the FDA should really investigate it for giving bad medical advice.

### 1/5 — don’t download unless you were “invited” to use this app

*2024-04-19, version 0.1.11*

I thought how wonderful this app sounded. i might actually get some kind of feedback that my doctors had missed!! a new second opinion from another source for free?! how wonderful! ha! too good to be true, of course! i went through the menu, which was very throrough and actually sounded pretty helpful. then i got a one line answer from the doctor stating that i needed to be invited by someone and basically i was not so this app is a crock of no good unless you are the special few who have this special golden ticket in. go figure.

### 5/5 — An excellent resource

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.0*

Wow! So impressed by this app and the experience of chatting with this app. It honestly has a great “bedside manner” and feels very human in how it answers my questions, while addressing my concerns. Having the ability to chat with a doctor is unmatched in the industry… I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m waiting to hear back from my doctor at the moment so who knows… maybe today is the day. Thanks for building this!!!

### 5/5 — So glad this exists!

*2026-04-27, version 1.1.0*

I am a medical student and I used Counsel for my acne. Was very impressed with the efficient yet comprehensive questions it asked me, the likely diagnose and explanation, and detailed treatment plan! Saved me a trip to my PCP (who I cannot even access right now because I’m traveling for an extended period)! Cannot recommend it enough!

### 5/5 — Super Helpful

*2026-04-14, version 1.1.0*

I love how intuitive and insightful the app is. I can ask it questions about my health and get high quality answers

### 5/5 — This is the future of medicine!

*2026-02-18, version 1.1.0*

I was able to talk to a real doctor in minutes and get a prescription, which saved me time and $$ since I otherwise would have gone to urgent care. Amazing service!!

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2026-01-06, version 1.1.0*

Really easy to use and useful

### 5/5 — So seamless and easy

*2026-01-01, version 1.1.0*

I had arthritis flair ups, and getting meds for them can be really difficult if i happen to be out - using counsel was so seamless, i was in bed on new years day, and everything was taken care of before I even had my coffee. Healthcare as its meant to be!!

### 5/5 — Best health app experience ever!!

*2025-12-23, version 1.1.0*

Using counsel health has been a genuinely reassuring experience for me! The interface is super easy to use and the mix of AI with real doctors replying is truly amazing! What stood out most to me was how attentive and caring the doctors are - they take time to explain your problem clearly and make sure I understand my health better. This app has become my go-to whenever I need reliable and fast medical support! Highly recommend it
