Mr Evangelou has worked in UK during the pandemic and has great experience on remote consultations.
The remote consultation doesn’t substitute the need of a face to face appointment and clinical examination, but:
- Patients from remote areas can communicate and discuss with a specialist, especially those with mobility issues.
- It is helpful for scan follow ups, review appointments when a face to face consultation is not required, or as a pre- assessment visit when you can inform the specialist about your symptoms, available scans and brief medical history, so as to make your first appointment more efficient.
What should I need:
- A private room for confidentiality purposes
- Fast broadband internet connection
- A smartphone, table, laptop or PC
- A videocall application like Skype, Vibet, Whatsaap, FaceTime etc
- An activated camera and microphone
- And ideally you should have completed the new patient form
