WELCOME TO ONLINE DOCTOR SECTION OF MEDBEATS.COM
The need for online medical services is increasing due the fact that many medical questions remain unanswered even after discussing them with one's private physician. Moreover, the physicians are increasingly short of time due to paperwork and insurance formalities. This results in less than adequate discussion of problems with the patient. Sometimes the diseases go unnoticed and overlooked. This calls for a system where patient gets an opportunity to ask their questions in detail. At last, this is becoming possible with the advent of online medical services. The challenge is to locate the reliable and qualified doctors while preserving one's privacy and confidentiality at the same time.
With increasing demand of this section Medbeats Healthcare has decided to introduce an ONLINE DOCTOR section. In this section Doctors from all over the world will answer your queries through E-mail or Live Chatting (Medbeats Chat or Yahoo/MSN/etc). By Subscribing/Asking any query it is assumed that you had read al terms and conditions and agreed to all of them. These terms and conditions are liable to change at any time without and notification to anyone. Please do read terms and conditions regularly on the website. Medical questions are answered by the board-certified specialist physicians through e-mail. They excel over other services for several reasons. First, the answers are provided by specialist doctors rather than paramedics. Also, the answers are sent confidentially to the patient's e-mail address. Their response time is quicker than most other online medical services and is depend on the available doctors. We found this service to be a good option to a routine clinic visit. This service is not a replacement of visiting your hospital/GP. This is just a type of consultancy and also for second opinion. Treatment is not at all advised here for which a thorough clinical examination and investigation is a must. Send your queries with full and detailed history and investigation reports without which the query will not be answered. incomplete queries are not entertained.
