Telehealth involves the option of conducting video consultations as a substitute for face-to-face interactions. This allows you to have appointments with your healthcare provider from the comfort of your home or office, thus saving on travel and waiting times at the clinic. This feature is particularly beneficial for those in isolation due to the Covid-19 crisis as it enables continued access to medical services.

Well, Telehealth is good for a lot of health problems—about 70% of them! It’s great because doctors can listen and give advice, write prescriptions, and give referrals and certificates without you having to come in.

But, some things need you to be there in person, like if the doctor needs to listen to your heart or look inside your ears.

If the doctor thinks they need to see you after a Telehealth call, they will ask you to come into the clinic to check you properly.

For video calls, you need a computer with a camera and a microphone.
Or, you can use an iPad, a tablet like a Samsung tablet, or a smartphone.
We use a safe tool to keep your call private and secure.
If video doesn’t work or stops working, we can just talk on the phone.
