### "Doxy.me is easy to use, affordable, and reliable. "

March 11, 2026

5.0

I have been using Doxy.Me since it launched in 2013. I began searching for HIPAA comliant formats that were easy to be utilized by the patients, gave them the link in an email or text. Doxy.me hit all the parameters I was looking for.

Pros

I like Doxy.Me for its simplicity for my patients. There is no learning curve either for clinicians or patients.

Cons

The only con is the cost of paid subscription, however it's cheaper than most. However, I did use the Clinic version for several months while I was in private practice. It was worth the peace of mind.

### "My experience has been all positives"

October 2, 2025

5.0

I have used Doxy since the pandemic (5 years) and cannot understand why medical providers would use something else. I believe that having to have an account and the meeting number nonsense gets in the way of things.

Pros

The ease of use for both myself and clients. I use doxy not only for telehealth appointments but it's what I use exclusively for consultations with potential new clients. I use the tier that has no charge and it's been more than enough for my needs.

Cons

I can't think of anything that I would indicate that I don't like. There's nothing that I've had happen in using doxy that was negative. Back in 2020-2021 there were occasionally connection problems, but I did not attribute that to doxy's service.

Reason for choosing Doxy.me

I had always liked Doxy for the ease of use, especially when directing consultations where to meet. And since AI note assistant is something I use, continuing telehealth on doxy has continued to be very easy

### "Simplicity and HIPPA compliant"

April 13, 2026

4.0

Ive enjoyed using it but I am unable to use it consistenly (with all clients) because of the tech issues mentioned above. Not worth paying for but the free version is good enough for certain purposes.

Pros

HIPPA compliance. Ease of logging in for clients and provider. Having your own provider URL (no portal creation necessary for clients). Simplicity of the interface.

Cons

High cost to purchase additional features like screen sharing. Often has an echo when clients speak. Poor connections, cutting out, freezing, needing to restart calls to help mitigate that.

Reason for choosing Doxy.me

HIPPA compliance. Convenience of a personal provider URL to login and not needing client app or portals.

### "Nice basic system"

October 6, 2025

3.0

Convenient but not like Zoom. Quality is not nearly the same. Is HIPAA Compliant which is essential

Pros

The price and availability. Easy to use. fairly reliable. Easy to report Problems. Responsive to complaints.

Cons

Can be very glitchy with some people and quality varies greatly. Voice is sometimes very very choppy

### "Doxy is an integral part of my business"

September 18, 2025

5.0

i love doxy and have been using it every time i work for the last 5 years! my practice is completely telehealth

Pros

i have been using doxy.me since around 2018, and it has been so helpful. the free version meets my needs, so it feels like its a huge asset to my business. whenever i have needed help, customer support was super quick to respond to me. it is so intuitive, so the learning curve was low, which helped when the pandemic happened, and all of my clients had to move to telehealth.

Cons

i use it daily, and its super helpful. sometimes it giltches, and everytime i start a call there is feedback that takes about 30 seconds to even out.

### "7 Yrs a Doxy Doc & it's only gotten Better!!"

June 22, 2025

5.0

I'm a physician licensed in 3 states, and TeleMedicine is a must!! I can get on Doxy as easy on my phone on the road as I can on my laptop. It occasionally loses video if I have minimal service bars, but often audio continues till signal is better to regain video.

Pros

1 - Best FREE option on the market I know of that is secure & dependable. I use it to see pts daily, and have for several years now. They have improved & fixed sooo many - dare I say all? (cuz I haven't seen any this year) of the Covid era glitchs I used to encounter. I now see pts daily - using the FREE version - some pts have trouble figuring out how to navigate the waiting room ...granted mostly technically challenged & have to be literally walked thru it by someone that understands basic phone internet ... but once on, it's a piece of cake.

Cons

I guess I'll have to get the paid version so I can update the waiting room message, as it's several years outdated & I see NO way to update it with the FREE version???

### "Incredibly reliable free resource that has saved me!"

June 28, 2025

5.0

As a solo practitioner, I was looking for something that would not add to my monthly expenses, would be consistently reliable for clients, and would give me a static link. Doxy.me has saved me many times when my \[other\] company-specific EHR video platform would have serious issues in sound sycing. I would inform my clients to meet me at doxy.me. Doxy.me has now become my main video option for clients and it is absolutely free!

Pros

Doxy.me has been fabulously reliable, incredibly userfriendly, and an incredible deal! I love Doxy.me for seeing my mental health clients. I love that my company name is in the static link I can give any clients. The interface is consistently great for video calls.

Cons

NOTHING! I get a free, HIPAA-compliant service to use whenever I need. Okay, honestly, the worst thing I could say is that sometimes clients can hear themselves speak for the first 5 seconds of a video call. It has always gone away quickly.

Reason for choosing Doxy.me

I love the free option! The video capture is not as wide angled as Google Meet -- I don't want the client/patient to see all of my room.

### "Grateful for ease of use"

October 3, 2025

4.0

I was intimidated by the idea of having to do telehealth but Doxy is the best I could have hoped for.

Pros

Having the same four word link each time and being able to get multiple clients on at the same time even if they need to be separate geographically.

Cons

recent difficulty with poor connections if client is on the mobile phone. Telephone calls in to the client disrupt the connection.

### "Doxy.me and Surviving the Pandemic"

December 23, 2025

5.0

The company has been so great to work with. The folks who started out with my organization in the beginning during the pandemic were incredibly caring and attentive. That relationship has continued to this day.

Pros

This product is easy to use and within 2 weeks I was able to learn how to use it myself and create content to educate my entire health center and get us up and attending to patients during the pandemic.

Cons

At first when the camera or microphone didn't work, I had no idea why and had to learn how to troubleshoot things like that, but this is part of all platforms.

### "Excellent product for solo private practice"

April 20, 2026

5.0

Overall doxy.me has been wonderful to use. They're still my top choice as a telehealth counselor, between the security they provide, their cost, and the sheer quality of their product.

Pros

Doxy.me is an AMAZING product with features that put it at the front of the field. I'm able to create a stable link for patient use, preview my camera/mic/sound, see when patients log in for session, and start session, all from one screen. They've recently implemented options for billing and payments, as well. With various plans doxy.me creates amazing options for the price, and their customer service is responsive and helpful if you encounter any bugs. If you've ever used any other telehealth video platform there's almost no learning curve transitioning to doxy.me.

Cons

It would be helpful if there were an automated email of some sort sent to providers who use doxy when they're down, or expect to be down. I recommend having a stable second option you can quickly send patients as needed. Doxy isn't down often, but when it is, it's usually a surprise.

September 10, 2024

5.0

It's been a huge lifesaver. I hadn't done telehealth much before this year, and doxy has helped me adjust.

Pros

LOVE the white board and waiting room-it's always reliable and super easy to use with clients. It helps make telehealth more engaging, interactive, and personal.

Cons

NOTHING. I really have no suggestions or cons.

### "Doxy is Perfect!"

May 19, 2025

5.0

Very positive and I have encouraged my colleagues to use it as well. I have gotten thank yous from my interns who use it and they all like it a great deal.

Pros

I can manage my waiting room, send messages, the video is always stable. It's so easy to use. Also, sharing the Doxy link is super easy and I have options about how to share it and I can make the link unique or use the same one each time. Thank you so much!

Cons

I can't think of a thing at all. Please keep doing what you are doing. I am not sure what else to say I have to type 100 characters minimum. lol!

### "the only platform I will use for psychiatric practice"

March 20, 2025

4.0

great! I even decided to pay for it!

Pros

as long as the patient has adequate internet, this platform is HIPAA compliant and confidential. I am much happier conducting sensitive interviews using Doxy.me over zoom or other meeting platforms.

Cons

it can be difficult to get customer service on the phone, but if FAQs are all you need, it's OK

I really appreciate it. It was there when I needed to pivot during Covid. Now my entire practice is virtual and it has allowed so much freedom to do my therapy session from anywhere.

Pros

Reliability, user friendly, always evolving based on feedback and changes in the field, safe and secure, priced right

I thoroughly enjoy using Doxy and highly recommend.

Pros

It's easy to use for myself and patients. The usage is also very efficient, especially for my older clients that have challenges navigating technology. It makes telehealth a breeze!!!

February 6, 2025

My experience was a net positive despite minor issues. I continued to use the platform for a long time due to the dependability.

Pros

I love the user ease on both ends - client and clinician. The platform can be utilized on any device without any major setup or difficulty. I also love the secure nature of the platform.

Cons

Connectivity issues and buffering were common. There were also some issues when connecting headphones or listening devices.

Great, very little issues, occasional disconnect but not sure if it's on the clients end or not.

Pros

Secure, easy to use, good connectively, no complaints from clients.

Cons

Please add "touch up my appearance" to the video settings. It blurs out a lot of the wrinkles, pock marks, signs of aging, and sun damage! :)

July 15, 2024

5.0

I have been using Doxy.me for 5 years. It has been very easy to use for both myself and customers. I especially trust that doxy.me will stay on top of HIPPA compliance. I started with free service and found the quality of the call excellent. I did upgrade in order to have more services, but also to support keeping the platform available.

Pros

Solid HIPPA Compliance. Easy to use for myself and the consumer.

Cons

Occasionally, I see someone who has trouble accessing doxy.me, but this is rare.
