Complex cases and cases with long history, multiple consultations and treatment and elderly patients can't and should not be subjected to online consults. Online consultation isn't as comprehensive as a in-person consultation and risks missing out findings. Always try to get an in-person consultation as soon as possible after an online consultation. Proceed with online consultation only after understanding these and please upload any supportive investigations and prior consultation papers before starting the consultation. Video consultation will be limited only to showing any relevant findings and by default it will be an audio consultation. At times I may not be able to call at the exact allotted time, please bear with me and I will call.
