Age Requirements Explained

Adults (18+)

Adults can create their own account, book appointments, and attend visits independently through the DrHouse app.

Children and Minors (Under 18)

DrHouse allows care for minors, but with specific requirements:

• A parent or legal guardian must be present during the consultation
• The adult is responsible for creating and managing the account
• The visit is conducted under the child’s profile within the account

This ensures that medical care, consent, and communication are handled appropriately.

Family Account Access

DrHouse supports family member management, which allows one account to manage multiple patients. This makes it easy for parents or guardians to:

• Add children or dependents
• Book visits on their behalf
• Access prescriptions, notes, and medical history for each family member

Each patient still has their own medical record, even within a shared account.

Limitations and What to Know

• Minors cannot attend visits alone
• A separate visit must be booked for each patient
• Physicians treat one patient per visit only
• All care decisions are based on the physician’s evaluation during the consultation
