It’s no secret that everyone is concerned about their health nowadays amidst Covid-19. There’s a shortage of masks and hand sanitisers, and people are fearful of going out and about. If you’re feeling under the weather and not keen to visit the clinic, why not bring the doctor to you? Digital healthcare is on the rise, and there are a few telemedicine apps and websites you can use for consultation and related healthcare services.
1) Doc2Us
With its name sounding like “talk to us”, Doc2Us allows you to talk to a doctor or any healthcare professional via text chat anytime, anywhere. Not keen on typing a long paragraph? You can also use audio and picture messages to better describe your condition. Anytime you have an issue that’s nagging at you, you can turn to Doc2Us for a quick chat, for it’s your personal pocket doctor. Besides that, it also provides daily health tips and articles to users for free!

Doctor House isn’t an app either, but they provide 24-hour medical care, and a doctor will be at your location within 60-90 minutes.
