Leaving the safety of your home and visiting a medical office or hospital might not sound ideal during these times, but there is another way to diagnose and treat your health issues.
The Doctors welcome Chief Medical Officer of Doctor On Demand Dr. Ian Tong to discuss how telemedicine can help you get the medical attention you need without having to venture out.

Dr. Tong says as the pandemic spreads that Doctor On Demand is helping educate patients about COVID-19, providing remote evaluations, and directing patients to places where they can get tested.
With clinics, urgent care centers and emergency rooms being overwhelmed, Dr. Tong says most people with a medical need should consider using telemedicine in order to free up healthcare workers on the frontline. He also notes telemedicine will help people who are not infected with COVID-19 stay away from facilities with people who are infected, which helps cut down on transmission rates of the virus.
In addition to physical health, Dr. Tong explains how Doctor On Demand can also be a great resource for mental health concerns, like increased levels of anxiety, feeling hopeless, depression and sleep issues -- all of which appear to have increased sharply during the pandemic.
