Telehealth
A telehealth appointment is just like a normal appointment; only you will be seeing and speaking with Dr Janaka on a computer monitor or phone screen or TV screen.
During the video consult, Dr Janaka will conduct a consultation to go through the normal procedures of asking about your symptoms and assessing potential diagnoses. You can also get your scripts for medicine or discuss any general health concerns.
Please press the button below when you are ready for your appointment with Dr Janaka.
