Go Online For Better Follow Up Doctor Consultations

It’s the festive end of year time with Christmas celebrations 🎅 and a holiday vibe floating in the air.
It is one of my favorite festivals.
Today, I’ll tell you the second reason why I shifted from a conventional offline practice to an online clinic.

Do you want to know the first reason? Well you can read it here
Follow-up consultations are easier when done online. There are several studies that have proven this concept. In a traditional hospital visit, even when the doctor advises a follow-up after 14 days, patients show up for the follow-up visit less than 20 times out of 100. This may not cause problems immediately for the patient, but, in long term, it can. As online consultations make it easier for patients to book a consultation, the chances of follow-up consultations are higher. I have many patients who live abroad but, they never fail to show up for follow-up consultations.
This has helped me to build a deeper relationship with my patients which in turn has helped them too.

Dofody has launched consultation packages.These are long term packages with many consultations bundled and paid for in advance. The patient as well as the doctor becomes committed and there’s no chance of missing follow up consultations when you subscribe to one of these packages.

So, what’s Reason #3? It’s a secret, but you can read it here.

I am not sure when you are going to read this. But, that doesn’t really matter.

So I, on behalf of Team Dofody, Wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 🌲 ✨

P.S – Back in 2019, I made a video on how to make your Christmas a healthy one. When I watched that video now, it made me laugh😊 If you want to watch it, here’s the link
