Online Video Consultation with Doctors at Max Healthcare

These measures include – continuous and extensive cleaning & disinfection in premises; no visitors allowed; no entry inside the hospital without mask; screening of patients/staff at the entrance; separate flu clinic outside the hospital. For patients are who are still not comfortable in coming to the hospital, we have started expert Video Consultations with our Super Specialist doctors so that they do not delay their treatment.
Video consultations are safe, save time, maintain a patient’s privacy, and allow them to get in touch with a specialist by choosing a desired date and time slot in the comfort of their home.
Benefits of online video consultations
- Privacy- Certain diseases and conditions in our society are often stigmatized, stopping people from visiting the doctor. However, with video consultation, you can maintain your privacy and consult any specialist at any time.
- Safety- . People are delaying their treatment for the fear of COVID-19 and are avoiding any visit to the hospital. Video consultation solves this problem as doctor consultation can now be availed from the comfort and safety of their homes.
- Accessibility- Often, people from smaller towns and cities don't have access to the healthcare facilities. And if they do, they have to travel long distances to visit the doctors, further adding to their expenses. Video consultation facilitates people's accessibility to expert doctors and quality healthcare.
