Doc See Me Lives Up to Its Mission Statement
I have been VERY happy with Doxy.me, overall. I truly appreciate that their goal of increasing telehealth access means that solo practitioners like me can use the software for free. Connectivity issues happen with different platforms on different days, and the free account allows me to have a Plan B when my EHR's video function fails.
Pros
I started using doxy.me in late February, 2020, when an immunocompromised patient requested video sessions to limit their exposure to COVID-19. I found it very easy to use, greatly appreciated the ease with which I got a Business Associate Agreement, and I like that it shows how much time has elapsed in each session. My patients have also found it to be easier to use than my EHR's video function. Also, it keeps a record of the start and stop times of all my sessions, which makes it easier to get the times right on my progress notes.
Cons
There's nothing that jumps out at me as an issue, honestly.
Reasons for Choosing Doxy.me
For my small practice, it is free. I ultimately signed up for Counsol.com's video, too, in mid-March, 2020, because I rapidly learned that connectivity was not always possible (which I chalked up to getting what I paid for - LOL) and I wanted access to another HIPAA-compliant option. I continue to use Doxy.me the most, however, because I prefer its "stopwatch" feature and my patients find it so easy to use - no username, no password, just type in the URL and we're off.

Extra Office Space.
It has been a life-saver in that half our visits on any given day may be done remotely.
Pros
This allows us to see far more patients without them crowding in to an actual waiting room For the most part connections and quality have been good. It is easy to direct patients to our waiting room. You can send a chat message to one person in the waiting room while talking to another. Our practice logo can appear nicely on the landing page.
Cons
Occasionally it take a minute for the outgoing sound to connect, although I can hear the people on the other end.
Reasons for Switching to Doxy.me
Security concerns, features, ease of directing patients to Waiting room.

Used Doxy successfully for about 6 mths, and now it is freezing constantly during sessions
It was working really well for client appointments (which I do a lot of using tele conferencing systems) but has become extremely unreliable in the last month. I did recommend it to one colleague who is having similar issues
Pros
In the past I would have said easy to use and reliable ..
Cons
I have tried every possible combination to have the highest speed possible, and my clients have high speed service, but Doxy is constantly freezing up during sessions. I used to have excellent service with Doxy and I'm wondering why it has changed. When I do Doxy's diagnostic service it says everything is "excellent", but I can tell you it is not!I have already paid for the service for the year, but I'm considering switching. I received an email from the CEO of Doxy a month or so ago saying he was leaving and i am wondering if things have changed and the service isn't what it used to be?

Hi Sonya, I'm sorry for the trouble. We haven't changed anything in the past couple months in regards to the quality of our service. I'd be happy to jump on a call with you and see what might be going on. Sometimes even things like not having a recent software update installed can have negative effects on performance - so I'm confident we could get it worked out. We also have a satisfaction guarantee so we will refund you for any unused time on your yearly plan if we are not able to come up with a solution for you. I sent you a email as well so we can setup a time to troubleshoot. Thank you, Dylan Turner dylan@doxy.me CTO and Cofounder

Great Platform for Telehealth
Solid, HIPAA complant platform.
Pros
We are very happy with the ease of use for providers and clients. The video and sound have overall been very clear with little interruptions.
Cons
The cost for all users in our office is a concern. We do not know where the viral pandemic will take us in the months to come. In our area, it seems to be settling down, but we are still concerned about ongoing local and state governance of business related to the same.
Reasons for Choosing Doxy.me
Ease of use. Medical focus.
Reasons for Switching to Doxy.me
Found out that ZOOM was no longer HIPAA compliant. Plus, the cost for our clinic was going to skyrocket. Plus the fact that there were breaches in the platform and that some provider's sessions were accessible to other people, whether hackers or not... (I can't remember the details) but it was not worth the risk. I did research. Tried two different ones, and doxy won out.
