Re: As with all things this could be great if done properly
All that can be done online is a history and visual examination [and the latter will be sub-optimal]. No palpation of the lump or tender area. No ophthalmoscopic exam of the eyes. No dip test of urine, and no blood tests - have to make another appt for that, probably at the hospital.
And it won't take less time for the GP who will get more info from the patient in 10 mins face-to-face than in an online consultation.
