Yes I had consulted with my Doctor in Medanta Gurgaon by video conference from Singapore. It was very useful and was just like meeting doctor in his clinic. It saved my trip to India. But it is better to use this method for follow up or getting second opinion. For first time consultation, It is better to Visit the Doctor personally.

you have suggested a site for online consultation but you have not shared your experience with doctor. that way the post seems to be incomplete.

I think you are right. Actually I took it for my mom in law.She is a patient of high blood pressure.She was having swelling in her legs .I just dropped a casual query about it. In reply doctor suggested some test which revealed that she was actually having protein loss.I reverted back to doctor . He changed her b.p. medicine from amlodipine to telmisartal. After that her swelling was gone . Her protein loss problem solved. This incidence actually developed confidence of mine in that doctor. by the way I got reply only from Dr. Chandan. I tried to be as brief as I could . I suggested this website only for the benefit of the people of forum.

Online consultation with Doctors is very useful for elder people who are unable to travel to a hospital. Also it is useful for people are living alone. Online consultations will help them to talk to doctors from home without depending others.

My parents are using entehealth.com to talk to doctors in Kerala.
