Industry overview
A family doctor works with a household on a monthly or quarterly plan, tracking health over time, doing home visits for elderly people and children, and offering remote consults for minor illness. Reference prices run from 100,000đ per chat consult to 5,000,000đ/month for a whole-family plan. vServe connects families with a suitable doctor or clinic — it does not replace an emergency room when symptoms are severe.
When you actually need a family doctor
A family doctor plan makes sense when a household has an elderly member who needs regular blood pressure or diabetes monitoring, young children who get sick often, or simply wants one doctor who knows the family's medical history instead of seeing someone new every visit. The service covers periodic check-ups, advice for minor illness, and referrals to specialists when needed. Severe symptoms — chest pain, difficulty breathing, high fever with seizures, uncontrolled bleeding — call 115 or go to the emergency room immediately; don't wait to book a consultation through the platform.
Choosing an individual, family, or corporate plan
An individual plan at 500,000–2,000,000đ/month suits someone living alone who needs basic health tracking. A whole-family plan at 1,200,000–5,000,000đ/month is priced by number of members and how many home visits are included each month — a household of 4-5 people with an elderly member usually lands at the higher end. Corporate plans are priced PER EMPLOYEE: 50,000–250,000đ per employee per month — well below the individual plan because visits are done in groups, and the per-head rate drops as headcount rises. Multiply by staff count to get the total.
How booking works on vServe
On vServe, customers pick a service (remote consult, home visit, monthly plan), review a provider's profile and price range, then book directly — services like a 30-minute video consult can often be booked instantly without waiting for a quote. vServe connects families with a suitable doctor or clinic — the doctor is responsible for the examination, treatment, and their own practicing license. After the visit, customers leave a review directly on the provider's profile.
Home visits versus remote consultations
Remote consults by video (250,000đ/30 min) or chat (100,000đ/session) work well for quick questions, monitoring an already-stable chronic condition, or getting an opinion before deciding whether to see someone in person. Home visits (400,000–450,000đ/visit, 45-60 minutes) suit elderly people or young children who have trouble traveling, or cases needing hands-on checks like blood pressure or listening to the heart and lungs — the doctor brings basic equipment, but anything requiring blood tests or X-rays still needs a facility with the right machines.
What to know about this service in Vietnam
vServe verifies a clinic or provider's business identity through their tax code and business registration certificate, but it does not check each individual doctor's practicing license — families should ask directly and review a doctor's credentials before signing a long-term plan. For medication interaction reviews, bring the actual prescriptions or medicine packaging rather than relying on memory, since names are easy to mix up.

Frequently asked questions
What is a family doctor, and how is it different from a regular clinic visit?
A family doctor works long-term with one household on a monthly or quarterly plan, doing periodic check-ups, advising on minor illness, and referring to specialists when needed — unlike a regular clinic where you see a different doctor each time with no continuous medical history. For severe symptoms like chest pain, difficulty breathing, or high fever with seizures, you still need to go to the emergency room immediately; a family doctor does not replace emergency care.
How much does a monthly family doctor plan cost?
An individual plan runs about 500,000–2,000,000đ/month, and a whole-family plan about 1,200,000–5,000,000đ/month, depending on household size and how many home visits are included each month. If you only need occasional advice, a 250,000đ video consult or 100,000đ chat session is cheaper for light use.
Does a home visit for the elderly include blood tests?
A home visit for elderly patients (450,000đ, 60 minutes) only covers basic clinical checks like blood pressure and listening to the heart and lungs — no blood tests or X-rays are done at home. If tests are needed, the doctor will point you to a facility with the right equipment or you can book a separate sample-collection service.
What does a medication interaction review involve, and what should I bring?
A medication interaction review (300,000đ, 30 minutes) is a session where the doctor checks all current medications — including supplements — for harmful interactions, which matters a lot for elderly patients on multiple drugs at once. Bring the actual prescriptions or medicine packaging rather than relying on memory, since names are easy to mix up.
Can a video consultation replace an in-person exam?
A video consultation works for minor symptoms, monitoring an already-stable chronic condition, or getting advice before deciding whether to see someone in person, but it can't replace a hands-on exam when something needs to be measured or listened to directly. Severe symptoms — chest pain, difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding — call 115 or go to the emergency room immediately instead of booking a remote consult.
Does vServe check a doctor's practicing license?
No. vServe verifies a clinic's business identity through its tax code and business registration certificate, but it does not check each individual doctor's practicing license. Families should ask directly and review a doctor's credentials before signing a long-term plan, especially for palliative care or long-term chronic disease monitoring.
What does a pre-marital checkup include, and how much does it cost?
A pre-marital checkup (1,500,000đ/couple, 90 minutes) includes a general health exam for both people plus advice on relevant issues before marriage. The price covers one couple, not each person separately; if more specialized tests are needed, the clinic will quote that cost separately.
