Find your symptomBrowse every symptom by body areaWhat this navigator does, and what it deliberately does notHow Mobi Doctor worksWhen to get in-person care insteadFrequently asked questions about your symptoms- The navigator matches your symptoms to condition pages; it does not diagnose, rank likelihoods or score urgency. Reading the right page and speaking to a doctor does that job properly.
- Every destination page is written to the same standard: an honest treated-online verdict, doctor-reviewed content and guideline citations.
- Automated symptom checkers listed the correct diagnosis first in only about a third of standardised test cases in a 2015 BMJ evaluation, which is why this tool routes you to a doctor instead of guessing.
- The same emergency rule applies on every step: 112 is the EU-wide emergency number, free of charge, everywhere in the EU.
- Whatever you select here, crushing chest pain, stroke signs, severe breathlessness, heavy bleeding, a sudden worst-ever headache or thoughts of harming yourself mean calling 112 now, not reading further.
Every symptom below leads to a condition page with its own honest verdict on online treatment, so you always know before booking whether a video consultation can genuinely help.
This navigator is for symptoms that can safely wait for a booked video call. Crushing chest pain, stroke signs, severe breathlessness, heavy bleeding, a sudden worst-ever headache or thoughts of harming yourself need emergency help now: call 112, free anywhere in the EU.[1]
Browse every symptom by body area
Every symptom below links to the condition pages that commonly involve it; open the ones that sound like your experience and read which matches. Where a symptom appears under several conditions, that is honesty, not indecision: the same complaint can have different causes, and the pages spell out how doctors tell them apart.

What this navigator does, and what it deliberately does not
Swipe sideways to compare →
| What you get | This navigator | Automated symptom checker | Video consultation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Finds doctor-reviewed pages for your symptoms | Yes, 185 conditions | Sometimes, quality varies | Not needed: the doctor listens |
| Guesses what you probably have | Never, by design | Yes, correctly first in about 34% of test cases | No guessing: a clinical assessment |
| Scores how urgent your case is | No: one emergency rule for everyone, 112 | Yes, appropriately in about 57% of test cases | Yes, by a licensed doctor, honestly |
| Ends in a diagnosis and treatment | No: it routes you to the right page | No: it cannot prescribe | Yes, with a prescription when appropriate |
| Cost | Free | Free, your data often pays | €54 |
This tool finds pages; it does not play doctor. Automated symptom checkers that guess diagnoses were evaluated across 23 tools in the BMJ in 2015 and listed the correct diagnosis first in only 34% of standardised cases, with appropriate triage advice in 57%.[2] Guessing wrong about health is not a game Mobi Doctor plays. The navigator therefore never ranks what you probably have, never scores your urgency, and never adjusts medical advice to your answers. It matches words to pages, the pages give you doctor-reviewed knowledge with an honest verdict about online treatment, in the spirit of what the WHO calls self-care: informed people making better health decisions with professional support within reach.[3] The diagnosis itself comes from a licensed doctor who can ask the follow-up questions no form can. That consultation costs €54, often within about 15 minutes.
Found your page, or still unsure? A doctor settles it on video, usually within about 15 minutes. €54.
See available times →How Mobi Doctor works
- Book a time that suits you: open daily 7am–11pm. Most patients speak to a doctor within about 15 minutes of their booked time. €54 flat, no subscription.
- Speak to a licensed doctor about your symptoms: a private video call: you describe what you feel, the doctor asks what matters, and you agree the right plan together.
- Leave with a real answer: a doctor’s assessment, treatment where right for you, and any prescription sent to a pharmacy near you in most EU countries.
No sign-up needed
When to get in-person care instead
Call 112 immediately for crushing chest pain, stroke signs such as face drooping, arm weakness or slurred speech, severe breathlessness, heavy bleeding that will not stop, a sudden worst-ever headache, a seizure, or thoughts of harming yourself.[1] Babies under 3 months with fever always need in-person assessment. When in doubt about an emergency, call first and browse later.
Frequently asked questions about your symptoms
Can I check my symptoms and see a doctor online anywhere in Europe?
Yes. Mobi Doctor consultations are for adults (18 and over) and available from anywhere in Europe, in English, daily from 7am to 11pm. Use this navigator to find the page that matches your symptoms, read its honest verdict, then book: most patients speak to a doctor within about 15 minutes of their booked time. Prescriptions can be sent to a pharmacy near you in most EU countries.
Which symptoms can actually be treated online?
More than most people expect, but not all: of the 185 condition guides this navigator covers, 145 describe problems usually treated or handled online end to end, from infections and skin problems to mental health and repeat medication. The rest are handled honestly: partly online, assessment first, or clear direction to in-person care. Every page states its verdict before you book, so you never pay to find out that online was the wrong route.
Is this a symptom checker?
No, and that is deliberate. Symptom checkers try to guess a diagnosis from your answers, and a large 2015 BMJ evaluation found they list the correct diagnosis first only about a third of the time.[2] This navigator does something more honest: it matches the symptoms you select to the right medical pages, each medically reviewed by a licensed doctor, and the diagnosis itself comes from a real doctor in a video consultation.
Can this tool tell me what condition I have?
No, this tool never tells you what you have: it finds the pages about conditions that commonly involve your symptoms, and you read which matches your experience. Naming your condition is a medical diagnosis, and that is a doctor’s job. A licensed doctor does exactly that in a video consultation, usually within about 15 minutes.
What if my symptom is not listed here?
If your symptom is not listed, you can still book: the navigator covers the most common ways problems show up, not every possible complaint. Browse the full conditions list, or book a consultation and describe your symptoms directly; the doctor works out what matters from your story, which no menu can fully replace.
When should I skip this page and get emergency help?
Skip every website when emergency signs appear. Crushing chest pain, stroke signs such as face drooping or slurred speech, severe breathlessness, heavy bleeding, a sudden worst-ever headache, or thoughts of harming yourself mean one action: call 112 now.[1] The navigator repeats this because minutes matter far more than any reading.
How much does a consultation cost after I find my page?
A video consultation costs €54. The exact price is shown before payment, and there is no subscription. If the doctor can’t treat you online, you get a full refund and clear directions to the right care.
How quickly can I speak to a doctor?
Usually within about 15 minutes: Mobi Doctor is open daily from 7am to 11pm, and most patients speak to a doctor within about 15 minutes of their booked time. Every condition page you reach from this navigator shows live availability, so the distance from symptom to answer is one video call.

This navigator and the pages it links to provide general medical information and a route to a consultation, not a diagnosis. A licensed doctor assesses you personally in a video consultation, and emergencies belong with 112, not with any website.
