Instructions for Use of the Telemedicine Application
For the best and more direct service of our patients, who possibly due to the severity of their condition wish to have as immediately as possible the medical assessment of Dr. Georgallas and it is not possible for them to attend in person, we break ground and we provide the possibility of arranging a digital appointment.
Having the most modern technological means, a platform for conducting digital appointments via teleconferencing has been activated.
During the digital appointment, the patient’s medical history is taken as well as the study and detailed analysis of imaging findings and other diagnostic tests. The clinical examination includes the performance of various movements/tests through which important information is obtained both about the origin and severity of the symptoms and about the presence and the degree of possible intercurrent muscular and neurological disorders. In conclusion, the possible forms of treatment are discussed with the patient and an individualized treatment plan is drawn up.
Since the remote assessment can not completely replace the close clinical examination of the treating physician, in cases where it is deemed necessary and before performing invasive/micro-invasive treatments, a new appointment will be scheduled at the doctor’s office in order to complete the medical assessment and validate the indication for further diagnostic or/and therapeutic steps.
We recommend that the digital appointment be made only in cases of patients whose condition requires immediate medical evaluation by Dr. Georgallas and not for incidents that have the possibility to wait until the reasonable period of the visit of Dr. Georgallas in Cyprus.
