Question 1

how do i make an appointment for a video call consultation?

Accepted Answer

Pandemic times: It's 2020 and there's a global pandemic, so people in every country across the world have access to video consultations with doctors. How you make an appointment depends on which app or website you wish to see a doctor in. Generally, there will be a button to click on that says something like: Talk-to-Doctor, Make-an-Appointment, See-Doctor-Now, or some similar wording. (Sep. 2020)

Question 2

hello, i'm doing a project on teen drinking and i would like to interview a professional on the subject. i have questions on the matter and would prefer a video call to answer some questions. its only be for one minute and is voluntary?

Accepted Answer

: This site is where patients post symptoms of health conditions &amp; ask a related question. Volunteer docs post answers. This site is not a chat room and does not support any video conferencing. Find a local professional in your community and let this site  help patients.

Question 3

i need to talk to a doctor on video call?

Accepted Answer

Try our other forum: You have posted on our free, public, informational forum, where doctors do not see patient charts nor give medical advice. Try a private consultation where doctors can see you on video. Also, in the US some medications (but not all) can be prescribed and some lab tests can be ordered. On your screen, click Talk-to-Doctor. (June 2020)

Accepted Answer

: This site features volunteer docs who answer questions about health problems. We have no access to or information about local providers or clinics around the world where this site is seen &amp; questions originate.

Question 8

if i use the video call function and speak with a primary care doctor on this app, is it possible to get a referral to see a neurologist?

Accepted Answer

: There is no video call function on this public information site. This is where volunteer docs answer questions about health problems.

Accepted Answer

Your doc: Your primary care doc should be your best reference as family history and a focused exam should be integrated in further medical decisions. If needed, further tests such as mammograms or ultrasound can be ordered.

Question 10

: This would depend on the quality of the video and your ability to hold still and get in focus.  And the extent of the problem.  And the experience of the dr. If it was my eye would like in person exam.
