Zocdoc Hack 4.104 + Redeem Codes

Absolutely wonderful having this app! I love that I can chose ANY doctor that I want, just based off of their availability. There is absolutely nothing worse than having to Google “doctors near me” and having to call each individual one to find out who can or has time to see you immediately! Oh, and if you don’t make an appointment with each one at the very moment, by the time you call back bc you wasted all that time calling every single doctor, just to realize that one was the soonest appointment and doctor available even though they are booked 3 weeks out at the moment, then by the time you call back to schedule that appointment, it’s already been taken!!! So now you have to wait 4 weeks to be seen!
So, basically, like I’ve said, this is an absolutely great app for SO many reason other than just what I’ve mentioned. I recommend this app to everyone I know for it’s easy convenience! Also nice that I don’t have to deal with calling and as soon as someone answers the phone, I’m not being thrown on hold before I’m even given the chance to answer them back as to if, “it’s okay to hold!”
So take it from me, this is a MUST HAVE app!!!

Zocdoc has changed dramatically. The service used to charge doctors a flat fee to be on provider list. Patients who needed to see a doctor could always find someone and pay a reasonable fee if no insurance and expect to use most insurances including Medi-Cal and HMO. If they wanted to schedule with same doctor for follow up, this option was always available. Since June of 2022, the billing structure has changed. The doctor has to pay $40 for each patient who books online, whether the patient is seen or not. This, of course, became a much more expensive proposition for the doctor and he has option to cap his monthly expense, which makes him unavailable to receive any future referrals after he reaches the cap. The new billing structure placed a huge barrier to patient-doctor interaction on Zocdoc. Firstly, the doctor can’t afford to accept Medi-Cal or HMO patients anymore. Secondly, to cover increased expenses, the doctor must increase his charges for patients coming from zocdoc. Thirdly, the moment the doctor reaches his cap he becomes unavailable to more patients on zocdoc. Therefore, the choice of doctors, obviously, diminishes drastically. My advice, find a different service to look for doctors, just do a simple Google search. Zocdoc isn’t worth it.

Developer responded with a lame robotic answer, not covering a single issue raised by my review, just call us if you have questions…yeah right.

Whenever I make an appointment through ZocDoc I follow up and call the provider to confirm. About 85% of the time through my experience, upon following up either the provider isn’t actually in-network despite it saying that they are in ZocDoc or more commonly the appointment I thought I scheduled isn’t actually available (and sometimes they aren’t available for months). When I callout the provider’s rep about this issue they seem like they have no idea why I’m frustrated and offer zero sympathy… and sometimes they get mad at me for explaining my frustration… this is usually after spending 10 - 15 minutes spelling out all the personal info that should have been provided by ZocDoc. Medical care should be more delicately handled vs victimizing patients (I know this seems dramatic but when dealing with certain medical conditions and then needing to deal with this mess - it really does feel violating). I love ZocDoc’s interface, all the info it provides, reviews, and such ease of use. Unfortunately providers seem to have difficulty syncing their system… and show no cares in the world about the inconvenience and confusion it causes. I think it used to be better. I’ll probably just use my insurance website, moving forward… even though it’s horrible… and just call providers directly vs attempting to schedule online.

I love the convenience & how you get to read honest reviews from past patients about the doctors performance & behavior during times of examination. I like to google maps the location & look at the street view so I get an understanding of the area and parking availability. It’s so easy to use select the type of doctor you require (they cover a wide variety of not all services), you put your location or general area, the date you’d like to be seen and your insurance provider & it gives you the option to put your whole insurance card or to just list what kind of insurance you have if you have concerns with misconduct or doctors billing insurance. It’s unbelievable how easy it is to schedule/ Cancel/ change appointments without waiting on hold with reception. A little warning depending on your location you may experience a lack of professionalism or an increase waiting time or have a very small reception room that fills up quick so just keep in mind the area your doctor is located & please read the reviews for the doctors because some of them can be real creeps with shady business locations

I’m honestly surprised how good this app is. They showed me quality providers with reviews who were taking new patients and exact days and times they were available - many of them had openings the next day or week. It was easy to book through the app - I didn’t have to call or go to another website. I’ve tried searching for a pcp multiple times throughout the past year and when searching through my insurance portal or other search engines they would say the provider accepted new patients but when I called they actually weren’t still accepting new ones or the next available appointment was months away. After trying and failing to find one, I would just give up for a couple months then try again. I randomly heard about zocdoc when listening to a podcast (shoutout crime junkie) and I thought I’d give it a shot. I found a pcp and had an appointment booked for the next day. I’m honestly so surprised that it was so easy. I’d recommend to anyone.

I love using Zocdoc as opposed to calling my insurance company for a list of in-network doctors. Sign up is easy. Uploading your insurance card info is also very easy…just scan a pic on your phone. Just be sure to double check the info because I’ve done this with 3 different insurances and one of them was incorrect. However, they have an easy process to change it to the correct one. Best of all, once you do it, you don’t need to input your info again! I also love that it not only tells me who’s in my network, it also tells me significant info like distance from me, availability, a short bio of the dr, plus reviews! And, you can even see who’s available out of network, so if you have out of network benefits, you can see whomever you please! Seriously, one of the best health apps out there!

I rarely write reviews and I am extremely hesitant to project a singular experience of a provider on a marketplace onto an entire app but after several terrible experiences this app feels medically negligent as do the doctors. I’ve been to a orthopedist who erroneously diagnosed me with athletes foot and a bone spur. A dermatologist who postponed the meeting 15 minutes before it starting then wasn’t able to authorize my prescriptions with insurance. Another dermatologist who tried to sell me an egregiously expensive product and then wouldn’t refill the prescriptions I’ve used for years. A primary care physician where a later doctor described her care as “there to get you out the door and irresponsible.” The app shows drs drowning in positive reviews and seems to aggressively bubble compliments to the top. Drs can cancel with almost no notice and way too many agree to treat you online for conditions that they definitely should ask you to come in for. For all its glitz and polish, zocdoc pushes a last minute “in and out” approach to doctors that results in inferior care with professionals who are not significantly vetted or held accountable. Just call a dr to get quality care and never use this app - it is not worth it.

For background knowledge, I have been seeing a psychiatrist in illinois and have just moved to Colorado. My insurance is under illinois Blue cross blue shield, but the app seems to show me that I can still get a psychiatrist under this insurance.
Also, I struggle with anxiety -social anxiety included- so it can take me days to weeks to build up the strength to make a simple phone call, let alone schedule appointments.
This is the second time that I have scheduled an appointment with 2 different psychiatrists who say they will use my insurance. This is the second time I’ve made the appointments and waited a half hour the morning of, only to get no messages about getting a link to the video calls (also specified under my appointment information). This is the second time my appointment has been cancelled without warning with no response without building the strength to reach out.
This makes me realize why people don’t reach out for help. Because it’s so difficult just to get. Makes me also wonder what would have happened if I had decided to do in-person visits rather than virtual.

Hi! I started using this app again after about 2-3 years away from it and it definitely has improved. It is an easy app to use, but when I am searching for a specialist or a primary care provider it displays options that are at least 30-40 minutes away. If I filter my results to a specific day, it displays (non sponsored) doctors who are in the NYC area when there are definitely a few closer doctors available. This could be a glitch but I was able to work through it and found an available doctor who fit my schedule. My only concern is that this app will always be more convenient for individuals in densely populated areas. I live in a big college town in NJ and I was still unable to find a doctor that was less than a 20 minute drive away. Again, it is a VERY convenient app to use especially if you are on the go but there needs to be a significant user increase in order for everyone to benefit from Zocdoc.

I love Zocdoc, it’s beneficial to me and keeps me organized to when I have appointments. I receive emails and even texts to confirm or remind me of an upcoming appointment. With that being said, I don’t love the fact that you can’t tell which doctors will charge you what amount, which ones are ACTUALLY for your insurance and the rescheduling of appointments without your notice.

I came to this app to ease the trouble of calling every doctor and setting up appointments. It’s frightening enough meeting a doctor for the first time and...they’re terrible. They make you feel uncomfortable, insult you indirectly and/or their staff makes the entire experience even worse. What I got was exactly what I asked for. Easy to use, easy to review but there are still flaws.

I’ve had difficulty finding ones that take my insurance and then the issue of copay. You honestly never know what to expect. I’ve had them call me only to find out what I’m paying AFTER the entire session. For some it’s $15, others $30 and it can go upwards of $300.

The other issue is the rescheduling. I had one doctor completely inconvenience me by changing my appointment. That inconvenience led me to working on a day I usually had off and I ended up with a severe cold, forcing me to cancel majority of my other appointments.

In the end, it’s what you make of it. I’m just not a fan of doctors cause in the end they just want money.
