In a new partnership with FindMyDoctor.pk, Careem announced on Tuesday that it will bring qualified doctors to those suffering from the seasonal fever and flu.

The initiative is free of cost, with users having to pay just for the ride.

Users can call for a verified general physician using these simple steps:

1) Open the Careem App and choose MyDoctor car type (In case it does not appear, re-login to your app)

2) Make a NOW booking between 12pm and 5pm on the 24th and 25th of January

3) Press Chalo!

A press release by the ride hailing service states that it "launched the initiative to help riders deal with the cold from the comfort of their homes."

This is not the first time that Careem has come up with an out of the box idea, in December last year they launched Careem Shaadi a car service promising to take care of logistics during the wedding season, from dance practices to the actual event.
