What is Telemedicine?

Telemedicine:
Telemedicine is the future of medicine. It incorporates the most advanced medical diagnostic tools with the best medical care and brings it to a convenient location near you. The patient is cared for in a clean, comfortable room, where highly advanced medical diagnostics are performed in a quiet, discreet manner. Once the information is gathered it is sent to a Board Certified Physician. Then the patient is placed in a live two way conversation via a large plasma screen TV with the physician. At this point all questions are answered, more information is gathered and a diagnosis is delivered. If necessary you are prescribed medication and/or referred for treatment for your ailment.

The same technology used by hospitals that checks your blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygenation is used at Fastercare. Whether the doctor is in another room or miles away, the information stays the same as does the impeccable quality of the medical care. Added to this, fastercare has technology that allows you to view parts of your body with the doctor. For example you can see your ear infection along with the physician, thus optimizing your understanding of the illness and treatment. The list of medical ailments treated by the clinics are simple and are strategically chosen. If your ailment is not within its scope, then you will be referred to nearby physician's office or to the Emergency Department.

The advantages that telemedicine brings are endless.
- You are seen within minutes and no longer have to wait hours in an emergency department for minor problems.
- You are able to take care of problems in their infancy thus minimizing the chance for major health issues.
- You are not exposed to other illnesses.
- You are in a discreet private location.
- The cost for care is placed to a minimum without sacrificing the quality.
- You are seen and evaluated by Board Certified physicians, not Nurse Practitioners.
- With the telemedice technology, you are more informed and involved in your own care.

Fastercare is the future of medicine and the future of healthcare is now.
