Limited bed spaces in A&Es are unable to meet surging demands in A&E visits, even before they need to accommodate COVID-19 patients.
Â
As a result, conditions not classified under these life-threatening emergencies had to wait as long as 7-8 hours just to see a doctor.
Â
In reality, A&E is not the only place to go when faced with an injury or illness.
Â
Non-life-threatening conditions (e.g cough, flu, fever, headache, diarrhoea) that require immediate medical care can be attended to by a house call doctor.
Â
At Speedoc, our house-call doctors are trained in urgent care for all stages of life.
Â
They can reach your place within an hour so you’ll get to skip the hassle of visiting and waiting at the A&E in hospitals.
