WHY AN ONLINE DOCTOR?

Having in mind our timeless desire to offer modern and innovative solutions to our patients but also to always be present in every great crisis and challenge, SOS DOCTORS can now also be found online via video call. The service complements our wide range of medical services (20 specialties of home doctors, hospitalization and diagnostic examinations at home, doctor’s appointments, patient transfers, hospital treatment in clinics and medical equipment at home).

Through our new service, we hope to expand our coverage network in geographical terms, bringing closer not only the areas of Attica where we have been active 24/7 since 1993, but also remote or under-served populations and areas throughout Greece.

With our new service, you will now be able to consult an SOS DOCTOR online from wherever you are, through any device that has an Internet connection (smartphone, tablet, computer) either directly or at a scheduled appointment on the day of your preference.


DOCTORS THROUGH THE INTERNET - WHAT DO YOU ENSURE WITH A VIDEO CALL TO A SOS DOCTOR?

Teleconsultation allows video calls between a patient and an SOS DOCTOR. Particularly in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the development of technological means has made telemedicine easier and more accessible, even for those who are not particularly familiar with computers and technology in general. Some of the main benefits you will get by choosing our service and talking to an SOS DOCTOR via video call are the following:

  • Access to the network of SOS DOCTORS from wherever you are in Greece
  • Quality guarantee, due to the long-lasting experience of SOS DOCTORS since 1993
  • Immediate and continuous monitoring of your condition as often as you wish since SOS doctors are available to talk to you and guide you online at any time
  • Save money, time and travel costs
  • Zero waiting times in outpatient clinics and / or hospitals
  • Specialist assessment of whether the patient needs to be treated in person / hospitalization or not
  • Fixed prices with receipts
  • Continuous control, evaluation and improvement of the provided services
  • Ease, security and reliability in both video cals and payments through the award-winning know-how of DOCANDU

ARE THERE DOCTORS AVAILABLE FOR SUPPORT VIA TELEPHONE?

In case a patient does not wish to use a camera, there is the possibility to connect to our platform with the camera turned off. The same doctors available for teleconferencing are the same doctors available for telephone support, through our approved platform. Of course, the basic condition is that the doctor agrres that the use of the camera is not necessary. Clearly, in specialties such as the online Dermatologist at home this is not possible. On the contrary, it is perfectly acceptable in cases where a patient seeks e.g. Psychiatric help online.
