We are all aware that there is a plethora of services and advisory sites on the internet for free, so why would you pay for an online service such as the Children’s Online Clinic?

It is generally known that a lot of families from all over the world have little access to qualified paediatric and medical advice, and may find it extremely difficult to get the answers they need. The Children’s Online Clinic’s goal is to use the power of the internet to provide individualised medical advice on current state-of-the-art standards.

They have also noticed over the years that a lot of parents seem to struggle with a ‘jungle of medical opinions’, and they are there to help you understand and discuss tests you have had already done and look into further investigations or therapy opportunities.

Another argument for paying for this online service is the patient can see the online consultation rather as an alternative for a 'physical appointment' than as just 'any' advice you get in the internet for free. This applies especially for families who live in rural areas and would have to book flights/hotels to see a specialist.

Similarly, it is personal, so the specialists at Children’s Online Clinic would have a look at the medical history of the child and with that can decide what kind of treatment they recommend (free services are usually generalised). They also offer follow ups, so if the parents have further questions or just need some more advice how to proceed, they are here to help.

Children’s online clinic provide expert medical advice and second opinion in all areas of paediatrics, and are specialised in the diagnosis and treatment of allergies and asthma, so for more information on paediatricians, medical advice NZ and baby rash please go to https://childrensonlineclinic.com .
