Telehealth for South Africa
Distance, load-shedding, or a full day — telehealth keeps care moving. NuHealth video consultations connect you to clinicians reviewed by our team, with everything documented.
Real doctors, real standards
Every clinician is reviewed by our team before listing, and HPCSA registration is checked on the official register. The consultation starts when the doctor joins — never a bot.
Documents that hold up
Scripts and sick notes issued after a video consult are digitally signed and QR-verifiable — employers and pharmacies can check them in seconds.
Built for South African realities
Low-bandwidth tolerant video, local payment rails, and records that stay yours under POPIA.

What people ask
Is telehealth legal in South Africa?
Yes. The HPCSA permits telehealth consultations by registered practitioners; the doctor decides whether your problem can be safely managed by video or needs an in-person visit.
What do I need for a video consultation?
A phone or computer with a camera and a data or Wi-Fi connection, and a quiet private place to talk.
