Book an initial consultation — $89What you should know
Easykind's $29 consultation fee is the lowest in the market. However, this price is likely subsidised through product partnerships — meaning the low consultation cost may be offset by the products you are prescribed. If you prefer to use an alternative pharmacy, an administrative fee may apply. At Medio, your consultation fee is the full cost — your doctor has no financial incentive tied to what they prescribe or where you fill it.
Frequently asked questions
Why is Medio so much more expensive than Easykind?
Medio's consultation fee covers the full cost of your appointment with no subsidies from product manufacturers or pharmacy partners. Easykind's lower price is likely offset through product partnerships. Consider the total cost of treatment — not just the consultation fee — when comparing clinics.
What does 'subsidised by product partnerships' mean?
When a clinic offers very low or "free" consultations, the cost is typically recovered through partnerships with specific product manufacturers or pharmacies. This may influence which products are prescribed, or require you to use a specific pharmacy. At Medio, there are no such partnerships.
Can I switch from Easykind to Medio?
Yes. You'll need a letter of discharge if you've been a patient in the last 12 months.
