Online medical consultation is becoming popular with changing times. They are more effective in saving trouble, money and time. Consulting doctors online is way cheaper and time-saving than in-person consultation. 

Our family and peers often ask this question. Everyone’s opinion is different. Some still go for face-to-face consultation over online doctor consultation.

Illness can make anyone feel depressed, and one doesn’t even feel like getting out of bed. With proper online consultation, you don’t have to face traffic to get to a clinic and wait in the reception area for hours and fill out forms while waiting for consultation. Since online consultation can be done any time or from anywhere, it is comfortable for both patient and doctor to make the appointment.

We usually find it hard to talk to a doctor to discuss health issues during an in-person consultation, particularly when it’s about mental health issues or sexually transmitted diseases. In these cases, the online doctor consultation enables you to talk to a doctor while sitting in the comfort of your home. So, explaining your issue is comfortable and not embarrassing. Consulting online is also beneficial for rural people who cannot visit cities and consult the doctor in person.
