Telemedicine

Here are some considerable benefits:

• Improved access to care: Telemedicine allows patients to easily access consultations without having to travel (unless there are contraindications to proceeding or a more complex medical condition), which is particularly advantageous for those who live in remote areas.
• Early and effective screening: Our clinical nurses can perform preliminary assessments and provide laboratory requests to screen for certain problems; this allows for rapid screening.
• Quick referrals: If needed, our clinical nurses can immediately refer patients to our four specialists in urology and sexual health physicians, speeding up the diagnosis and treatment process.
• Education and awareness: Our nurses can provide advice, information and resources on sexual health, contributing to better prevention, understanding and adherence to treatment.
• Comfort and confidentiality: Telemedicine offers a more comfortable and confidential setting to discuss sensitive topics, encouraging patients to seek help without fear of judgment.
• Ongoing monitoring: Our clinical nurses provide regular monitoring of patients, allowing them to ask questions and proactively manage their health.

In short, for many issues, telemedicine at Les Cliniques Marois optimizes access to quality health care for patients without needing to consult a specialist.
