What happens if my condition requires in-person examination or treatment?
If your condition requires in-person examination or treatment, your DrHouse healthcare provider may recommend seeking care from a local healthcare provider or visiting a medical facility. While DrHouse offers convenient and accessible telehealth services for a wide range of non-emergency medical concerns, there are instances where an in-person evaluation is essential for a comprehensive assessment.
In such cases, it is important to prioritize your health and follow the guidance provided by the DrHouse healthcare provider. They may suggest visiting a local clinic, urgent care center, or hospital based on the nature of your condition. DrHouse aims to ensure that patients receive appropriate care, even if it involves in-person medical attention.
