  1. Read through many of the comments, all varied , all valid.
    Telehealth platforms have some benefits, but for the most part of little use.
    Unfortunately these days physicians really are just quarterbacking. Hands off, and redirecting. Personal experience, not just an opinion. Same physician for well over 10 years, this individual only contact was to check my blood pressure, and of course authorize prescriptions. Not impressed by the new standard of the medical professionals, extremely weak and feeble and ineffective. Much more to these comments, however check out the Ontario medical association, absolutely guaranteed to protect doctors mal practice, despite the truth.

  2. Interesting side bar,
    In Ontario physicians mal practice insurance is paid for by the OMA. Should one file a claim your dealing with a government bureaucracy.
    A service that invented the phrase "slower then mollases" . This practice is blatent conflict of interest.
    Have known individuals on both sides of the spectrum.
    There are physicians out there that have over 50 mal practice disputes that are still in the profession.

  3. A very big appreciation to Dr Igudia on YouTube who cured my Herpes simplex virus with his natural herbs medication which I got from him and I also encourage my fellow Americans who suffers from Herpes simplex virus to contact him on his YouTube channel for a permanent cure.

  4. the benefits of telemedicine became so much evident after the Covid 19 pandemic when people were forced to remain at home as part of social distancing. Patients could consult doctors from the comfort of their homes…Only thing is to check the availability of the doctors.

  5. Lmao only in a leftists mind hahahah.

    I’m sure you can see that temperature running warm from your stupid tele monitor lol. Clowns. Also over a million cancer cases were expected because of the over reaction to Covid and not getting normal screening. It’s trash. You just can’t give a full evaluation behind a monitor.

  6. Can you provide?
