\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo you dread getting sick? Not only because of the body ache, the fever or the migraines but because you know that you will have to make a trip to the hospital, sit around for hours, feeling worse by the minute, and rush through a few minutes with your doctor? Or maybe you have a chronic condition, such as diabetes, where you need to visit your endocrinologist every few months and show them your latest reports. You go to the hospital, wait till you\u2019re called for your tests and then wait some more to show your results to your doctor? And in recent times, having to do all this with the worry that you might be exposing yourself to COVID-19? \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It\u2019s a good thing that oDoc has another option for you, one where you can start recovering without ever having to leave your home. oDoc allows you to channel your doctor on a video call so all you need is a mobile phone and an internet connection!<\/strong><\/p>

Online video consultations with doctors has been around for a long time but has definitely become more popular and practical during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>

We know that it can be hard to wrap your mind around having your doctor\u2019s appointment on your mobile phone where the doctor speaks to you and provides a diagnosis. But there are many advantages of channelling a doctor virtually.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

No transportation time or costs<\/strong><\/p>

When you video channel your doctor on your phone, you can save money on petrol and public transportation. You also don\u2019t waste time travelling to a clinic or sitting for hours in a waiting room or risk running into a traffic jam.<\/p>

For those of you who live outside the big cities, you don\u2019t have to worry about setting aside your whole day or half your day to travel into the city for your appointment with the doctor.<\/p>

Comfort and convenience when channelling online<\/strong><\/p>

You can consult the doctor on oDoc from your own bed if you feel like it.<\/p>

A virtual consultation is much easier to fit into your busy schedule. You don\u2019t need to take time off work, you can simply schedule a consultation during your break, or before or after work. If you are taking care of children or an elderly parent, usually you would need to find alternative care while you go to a clinic for your doctor\u2019s appointment. But with oDoc, this worry is eliminated as you can still uphold your family responsibilities.<\/p>

Reduced exposure to other diseases commonly spread in hospitals<\/strong><\/p>

With virtual consultations, you are less exposed to other people\u2019s germs, which is an even greater benefit if you\u2019re chronically ill, pregnant, elderly or immunocompromised. This reduces the spread of COVID-19, flu and other infectious diseases. Doctors are protected as well.<\/p>

Immediate paediatric care for babies and children.<\/strong><\/p>

If your baby or little child has suddenly got sick in the middle of the night, you can immediately channel a doctor on oDoc who can ease your worries, provide a diagnosis and a prescription if needed.<\/p>

Online psychiatric support<\/strong><\/p>

Taking care of your mental health is as important as taking care of your physical health, which is why oDoc gives you the opportunity to speak to a counsellor or psychiatrist confidentially and privately.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
