About Pocket Provider™
Fast, simple access to a licensed medical provider for everyday, non-urgent issues — without urgent care waits, appointments, or office visits.
Pocket Provider™ is a private, subscription-based, virtual-first medical service providing fast access to a licensed human clinician — not AI — for everyday, minor issues.
What it is
A new kind of virtual care for South Carolina.
Pocket Provider™ gives you direct, secure messaging with a licensed medical provider for minor issues that don’t require labs or in-person visits.
No waiting rooms. No phone trees. No scheduling hassles.
Just fast, personalized care from your phone.
What we treat
Common, minor issues like:
- seasonal allergies
- sinus pressure
- congestion
- mild bronchitis
- stomach upset
- nausea / anti-nausea medication for travel
- simple skin issues (eczema, rashes, contact dermatitis, bug bites)
- mild infections
- medication questions
- short-term refills (non-controlled)
- uncomplicated UTI (non-pregnant)
- cold/flu guidance
If an issue requires labs, imaging, or in-person evaluation, we’ll tell you immediately.
What we don’t treat
Pocket Provider™ is not for:
- emergencies

Think of it as everything you’d handle in a quick urgent care visit — but easier.
