• Chronic conditions: diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, asthma, and heart disease.
• Mental health: anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep disorders.
• Skin conditions: rashes, acne, eczema, dermatitis, and infections.

Please note: For life‑threatening emergencies (e.g., chest pain, severe bleeding, loss of consciousness), always visit the nearest hospital immediately. Online consultation is for non‑urgent medical issues.

Video vs. Phone vs. Chat – Which Mode Should You Choose?

• Video Consultation: Best for visual examinations, skin conditions, mental health therapy, and when doctor‑patient rapport is important. Allows the doctor to observe your facial expressions and any visible symptoms.
• Phone Consultation: Ideal for quick follow‑ups, medication adjustments, patients with low bandwidth, and those who prefer voice‑only communication. Simple and accessible.
• Chat Consultation: Perfect for non‑urgent questions, lab report reviews, medication refills, and patients who are shy or prefer asynchronous communication. You can send messages and receive replies at your convenience.

Choose the mode that fits your comfort level and technical capabilities. All modes are equally secure and effective.
