Please note this is a sponsored blog post with CloudMD.ca and Vancouvermom.ca. All opinions are my own.
Does going to the doctor right now make you feel nervous about all the sickness going around due to the pandemic? Don’t feel alone! I try my hardest to stay clear of a medical clinic just to protect myself and my family. With the help of this brand new app, CloudMD, you can now rest easy knowing you can safely visit a physician virtually from the comfort of your couch! Let’s talk a little bit more about CloudMD and what makes it so convenient and great!
What is CloudMD?
Simply put, It’s virtual medical care. Whatever your schedule will allow and from absolutely any device, including your phone, desktop, tablet, you name it, you can instantly connect with a licensed Canadian doctor. If you are from BC or Ontario, you will not be charged anything to use this app. The doctors are more available than in-clinic doctors as they work on the evenings and weekends. As a busy mom of two myself, I know that evenings are usually a better time for me if I require an appointment. To have that availability is such a relief.
What Way Can CloudMD Help Me?
You may be wondering, in what ways a virtual doctor visit may be able to help you. Well, they are willing to assist with any general medical advice you may need. If you need a special referral to or for something, they can do that! Have a prescription that needs to be refilled? CloudMD can do that for you! If you require a sick note, mental health appointment, diet concerns etc… CloudMD will be there. Gone are the days of needing to ask your boss if you can have the day off for a doctor’s appointment! With this brand new easy to use and uber convenient app, you can have your doctors appointment from absolutely anywhere, anytime!
How Does CloudMD Work?
Super Simple! All you have to do is download the app. Register for an account and then, if you are ready to book an appointment, you simply follow the steps. Describe the purpose of your visit and a doctor will be connected with you and then you will either receive your diagnosis and/or prescription and be done!
