About Video Consultations
Video consultations are very much like the doctor consultations you have experienced already.
Your doctor would ask you your age, allergies and previous conditions. You would then discuss the symptoms you have been experiencing, for how long and whether those symptoms are getting better or worse.
The American Medical Association has found that 75% of regular doctor visits could be concluded effectively through video consultations just like these.
All doctors on oDoc are fully qualified and registered, and have at least 5 years of post-internship experience. Your doctor would be happy to answer any questions you have about your condition and about video consultations during your consultation.
Diagnosis over oDoc
If your doctor feels they have enough information to diagnose you through these questions and by observing you over video your doctor would explain your condition to you and, if medically required, issue a prescription to your phone bearing the doctor’s seal and signature.
