🩺 What Is a Doctor Home Visit?
A doctor home visit brings a qualified physician to your doorstep to handle:
- General Consultations: Illness assessment, chronic-disease reviews, medication adjustments
- Post-Op Follow-Up: Wound inspections, suture removal, surgical dressing changes
- Minor Procedures: IM/SC injections, IV fluid/drip setup, catheter care
- Lab Sample Collection: Blood draws and swabs sent to NABL-accredited labs sulekha.com
- Specialist Consults: Cardiology, orthopedics, neurology via partner networks (e.g., Apollo 24|7) medintu.in
This service reduces travel and infection risk—crucial for frail or immobile elders.
