Is there an app?

Yes there is.  askmyGP can be added to many devices by clicking ‘Add to home screen’ on the menu bar. If you select ‘Enable Notifications’ you will receive a notification when you have a message from the doctor.

 

Depending on your device, you can also choose to allow integration with your camera (for photos of symptoms), authentication (one less password to remember) and receive notifications (no more missed emails). n.b. apple does not currently permit notifications.
