Aster DM Healthcare has introduced a free tele consultation service across its Medcare, Aster Hospital and Aster Clinic facilities in the UAE, allowing patients to remotely consult qualified doctors for all general ailments.
Through visiting the respective facilities’ website, patients can book an appointment with a general practitioner and then ‘visit’ the doctor remotely via a video call.
Appointments with paediatricians are also available through the Aster Hospital platform.
The doctors will advise patients should they require an in-person consultation for further testing, or if they need a prescription, and if they do, home delivery service for medicines and pharmacy products would also be available.
Customers can call 800700600 to speak to a pharmacist or order medicines, and they can also send their prescription via WhatsApp to 800700600.
Dr. Azad Moopen, Founder Chairman and Managing Director, Aster DM Healthcare commented, "In the circumstances where people are unable to move out of their homes and offices, we wanted to ensure that our patients continue to receive the best possible care. The launch of Aster Tele Consultation will hopefully provide everyone the access to their doctors remotely along with the supply of medicines at their doorsteps, by Aster Pharmacy in Dubai. Any patient requiring treatment shall be referred to the few clinics which remain open as well as to the Aster hospitals if warranted."
