While technology is an enabler, there are still limitations and it is important to know what they are. Some of these limitations include:
-
- Our capability in diagnosing and treating certain conditions will be limited. Our doctor may assess that your condition is not be diagnosable via telemedicine alone and may recommend that you come into the clinic for proper assessment. On the same note, our doctor may decline to provide a diagnosis or prescribe medication if he or she feels that they are unable to conduct a proper assessment via the telemedicine service alone. We hope you understand that your care is our utmost concern and we do not want to run the risk of a misdiagnosis.
- There may be technical faults which are out of our control. If in the event a fault or error occurs, we will do our best to rectify them, however, if it is a critical technological fault, we may not be able to deliver our telemedical service.
- Telemedicine is not a substitution for proper assessment and diagnosis. While we endeavour to provide you with the best service, our care and concern for your health is our utmost priority. If you feel that your condition is fairly serious, please do make an appointment and physically come to the clinic. Do not make a telemedicine appointment. We will not be able to make our diagnoses as telemedicine as compared to an in-person consultation.
- WL&H Medical Service may choose to end the telemedicine service at any point in time without prior notice. Patients with existing appointment will be contacted in this event to reschedule the appointment at their earliest convenience.
- Medication delivery is only available for locations within Singapore.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call our clinic at +65 6662 9366 and our staff would be more than happy to assist you.
