What Is Online Consultation?
What is Online Consultation?
We
know that coming in for an office visit is not always convenient and
has a real cost to you as a patient. Co-payments, gas and parking, lost
wages, child care and other costs of office visits add up and we are
sensitive to these costs and value your time. While most appointments
require you and me to be in the same room, there are many instances
where I can provide you with as much, or more, individualized
information without a face-to-face meeting. Some specific examples
include advice on changes in your particular medical situation,
gathering information on options for treatment, and interpretation of
abnormal test results with suggestions for further evaluation or
therapy. Our Online Consultation service and modest associated fee are
designed not only for your convenience, but also to save you money when
your questions, that previously required an office visit, can be
adequately answered online. Online Consultations will not be the ideal
service for all patients, but it will serve the needs of many and we
are happy to offer this new service and convenience to our established
patients.
