My Adult Doctor Launches Nationwide, Bringing Virtual Care to Parents Too

Parents often make healthcare decisions for the entire household, but finding time to address their own medical needs can be difficult. Between work, childcare, and managing appointments for their children, adults sometimes put their health concerns aside. QC Healthcare is expanding its virtual care services to help address that gap, giving parents another way to connect with medical professionals without having to visit a clinic.

On October 29, 2026, QC Healthcare, a subsidiary of Charlotte-based QC Capital Group, announced the nationwide launch of My Adult Doctor. The new service builds on the virtual care platform behind My Pediatric Doctor, which provides online medical services for children across the United States. With the addition of adult care, the company is extending its services to more members of the family.

Through My Adult Doctor, adults can connect with board-certified clinicians at any time of day, including weekends and holidays. The service offers virtual primary and specialty care and is available throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, and Guam. Patients can use insurance or choose a fee-for-service option. The platform also works with self-insured employers seeking more accessible healthcare benefits for their employees.

The expansion addresses several common difficulties patients encounter when trying to obtain medical attention. Traditional appointments may involve lengthy scheduling delays, while finding care outside regular office hours can be particularly challenging. Some adults also visit emergency departments for concerns that could be evaluated through other healthcare services. Virtual visits offer another route for non-emergency medical concerns, although serious or life-threatening symptoms still require immediate emergency assistance.

For families already using My Pediatric Doctor, the launch adds another service within the same connected virtual care platform. Parents can continue using MPD for their children's healthcare needs while accessing My Adult Doctor for their own concerns. For example, a parent dealing with flu symptoms and a child experiencing an earache may be able to arrange separate virtual consultations through the respective services. This can make managing healthcare for multiple family members more convenient, especially when concerns arise outside typical clinic hours.

QC Healthcare leadership describes the launch as part of a broader effort to make medical care easier to access. CEO Eric Doherty emphasized the role of technology in addressing delays and improving availability, while company founder Chris Salerno highlighted the expansion of the platform beyond pediatric services. Both brands are designed to provide access to virtual medical care throughout the year.

The addition of adult services does not change My Pediatric Doctor's role in supporting children's health. It gives families another resource when parents need medical attention themselves. Whether you are arranging a virtual visit for your child or looking for care for your own health concerns, having access to connected services can make healthcare easier to manage. Visit My Pediatric Doctor for your child's medical needs, or explore My Adult Doctor for adult virtual care.
