When Sharon Smith developed a deep, painful cough, the last thing she wanted to do was head out into the cold. “During the afternoon and into the evening, my little cough got worse and worse,” Sharon said. “I decided to try Parkview OnDemand.”
With Parkview OnDemand, you can talk to a provider anytime, anywhere through video or mobile app visits via a computer or smartphone. Providers are available around the clock to treat many common, non-emergent adult and pediatric issues. Also convenient, if needed, Parkview OnDemand can submit prescriptions directly to the pharmacy of your choice.
“There was no waiting to get squeezed into my doctor's schedule and no sick trip to her office. I stayed cozy in my pjs and saw the doctor through my phone. The doctor had my medical history in front of him and asked the same thorough questions my doctor would have asked in person.”
Luckily, Sharon’s condition was not an emergency and she received a simple diagnosis. “A prescription was waiting for me at my pharmacy the next morning and, by afternoon, I was already better.”
As for her overall experience, Sharon was thrilled at the efficiency. “I was surprised at how quick it was. I went onto the app and signed in and the doctor called me back in about 20 minutes. We were on the phone for 15 minutes and that was it.”
With influenza and other respiratory conditions affecting many households, it’s the perfect season to give this new option a try. “We've all had the experience where someone has a little bug or gets sick after hours or on the weekend, and we wonder if we should see the doctor or if it can wait until Monday. Parkview OnDemand seems like the perfect answer for those cases.”
Registering is simple. Just download the Parkview OnDemand app, available in Google Play or the iPhone App store, or visit ondemand.parkview.com, to get started.
