Dr Eve LTD is registered with the Care Quality Commission, the English independent healthcare regulator, under registration number 1-17534907209.

    1. Placing and cancelling an order

    Prescribing of Medicines
    When you place an order for medicines or take up a service that involves the prescribing of medicines this will require us to perform an assessment of your clinical suitability for the medicines before they can be approved for supply (“Clinical Assessment”). When you place an order, you agree to us commencing this Clinical Assessment and, as such, once this Clinical Assessment has been completed, you will have no legal right to cancel your order under The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

    Examples of this service are: vaccination services and prescription services

    HPV vaccinations
    HPV vaccination treatments are available to book here and are offered by ThanksDoc Online Doctor in either a one, two or three dose programme. If you’re getting the vaccine privately, through a service like ours, it’s up to you whether you get two or three doses of the vaccine.

    Once the Clinical Assessment for the HPV Vaccination has been completed, as explained above, you will have no legal right to cancel your order.

    Notwithstanding the above, if following the Clinical Assessment and prior to you receiving a HPV Vaccination you wish to cancel your order, for reasons which do not pertain to an act, omission or fault by ThanksDoc Online Doctor, ThanksDoc Online Doctor will, at its discretion, issue a partial refund for the vaccine doses which have not been taken, but will deduct a £35 administration charge for its costs incurred in: (i) administering this partial refund, and (ii) in completing the Clinical Assessment.

    Please note this only applies to HPV Vaccinations and not our other vaccination services or prescription services.

    Testing kits
    For unused postal testing kits and goods that do not require a prescription, you can change your mind and cancel your order provided you do so within fourteen calendar days of delivery. For orders containing multiple goods/testing kit items, this will be within fourteen calendar days of delivery of the last testing kit or goods item.

    Where the test kit has been tampered with following delivery i.e. has been used, or opened, we will not be able to accept any returns or issue refunds for such test kits for health and hygiene reasons. See section 20 for more details of our refund and cancellation policy.

    Examples of these testing kits are: STI or COVID-19 test kits

    Other services
    For any other item which is not a medicine, testing kit or goods, but requires us to provide a service alone or a service before approving items for supply, you have the right to cancel up to fourteen calendar days after the contract commences, however, where we have already begun to provide that service at your request, you will still be liable for costs relating to the service we have already provided. See paragraph 20 below for further details.

    Any cancellations must be received and reviewed by ThanksDoc Online Doctor, in order to qualify for a refund in accordance with section 20.

    1. Concluding a binding contract

    When we receive an order from you to purchase goods or services from us, we will confirm that we have received the order by sending a confirmation email to the contact email address that you supplied. Your order is an offer to purchase an item and will not be binding on us until we either prescribe your medicine, dispatch a testing kit or other goods, or otherwise commence a clinical service, whichever occurs first. Professional codes of conduct and legal restrictions may limit the number and frequency of any item we are permitted to supply to you and, as such, we have no obligation to supply quantities exceeding the relevant permitted maximum and will charge only for those we do supply. We reserve the right to reject any order.

    1. Delivery costs

    Patients can choose between next-day delivery charged at £4.95, or FREE Standard Delivery for testing packs, goods or medicines that are sent in the post. Delivery is not charged on orders for medicines or goods where these are to be collected in a ThanksDoc store.

    1. Payment and refunds

    In providing payment card details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the card and authorise us, or our payment service provider, to take payment in full for the items in your order and any associated delivery fees and any other charges that become due to us under these terms and conditions. The transaction will appear on your bank or card statement as ‘ThanksDoc Online’.
    Refunds, if applicable, will only be made using the payment gateway (e.g. Sagepay) to the card originally used for payment. Refunds may take up to five working days to appear on a card statement.

    All of our prescriptions are valid for six months from the prescription date. When you place an order for a medicine and nominate a pharmacy for collection, if our clinicians approve your order and prescribe, you must collect the medicine within six months. After this time, you will not be entitled to a refund.

    If you choose to pay via PayPal, then your use of the PayPal service is governed by the PayPal user agreement in force from time to time. Please refer to the PayPal user agreement for details of the terms and conditions applicable to payments and refunds processed through PayPal.

    1. Authorisation of orders for medicines

    Our clinicians can only make a decision as to whether it is in the best interests of the patient to receive a medicine when the clinician has all relevant information. On occasion, this may require the clinician to ask the patient for additional information further to the information that was provided in response to an online questionnaire.

    1. Non-availability/substitutes

    In the event that a patient’s chosen pharmacy is unable to fulfil a prescription or supply goods ordered, we will contact the patient to agree an alternative pharmacy that we have already identified as having the item available. The original prescription/order will be revoked, and a new prescription/order will be sent to the new pharmacy.

    1. Delivery of orders

    Your chosen pharmacy will dispense all medicines and supply all goods. Medicines and goods for delivery by post will be dispatched normally within one working day of the clinician authorising the supply of the medicine.

    Please note, if you choose to have your order delivered to a neighbour or left in a safe place it is your sole responsibility to ensure that the persons signing for the delivery on your behalf, delivers the medicines/goods to you and it is your sole responsibility to ensure that the safe place is secure and out of view of the public.
