What DoktorABC does

DoktorABC is a privately held European digital healthcare intermediary platform founded around 2016-2017 and operated by Sky Marketing Ltd., a UK-registered private limited company headquartered in London. The platform connects patients with licensed prescribers and partner pharmacies across four countries (United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, and France), enabling online medical consultations, electronic prescriptions, and home delivery of medications. Its core technology is a self-serve web platform that collects patient health information via structured online questionnaires, routes them to UK- and EU-registered prescribers for evaluation, issues electronic prescriptions, and dispenses medications through a network of licensed partner pharmacies (including Helix Pharmacy B.V. in the Netherlands for German fulfillment) with last-mile shipping via Royal Mail (UK) and La Poste (France). Regulatory credentials include UK General Pharmaceutical Council pharmacy registration (9012267), LegitScript certification, PCI DSS compliance, and GDPR/RGPD-compliant data handling.

The company's product portfolio spans men's health (erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, hair loss, testosterone deficiency), women's health (contraception in pill/ring/patch form, menopause), chronic conditions (GLP-1 weight loss, diabetes type 2, asthma, cholesterol), and sexual health (STI treatments, PrEP), with regional treatments such as prescription medical cannabis in Germany and OTC products. Pricing is direct-to-consumer and self-pay, with transparent upfront fees that bundle the consultation into the treatment price, free shipping over defined thresholds, Klarna installment payments, and a repeat/subscription mechanism for ongoing treatments like contraception. DoktorABC operates via a product-led growth motion with no traditional sales force; customer acquisition relies on organic search, the company's multi-language Wellness Magazine, email newsletters, social media, PR coverage in publications such as Doctissimo and Elle, and an affiliate program run via HealthRevs. The platform reports 1M+ customers worldwide, 4M+ orders delivered, an 8+ year operating history, a 4.7 Trustpilot score across 35,000+ reviews, and 95% customer recommendation rates.
