A 28-year-old female contacted the Teladoc Health GP service as she had a sore throat, was aching and felt very tired. The patient advised that she had developed a sore throat, and her temperature had been 37.1C at its highest. Her lymph node in the left-hand side of her neck was swollen, and she had what looked like a blister on her left tonsil.
The doctor diagnosed tonsillitis and advised that the patient take a course of antibiotics which should ease the symptoms. The patient was encouraged to contact the service again should her symptoms not improve or she develop any other symptoms.
Patient statement:
“So impressed with the service, had a call back within an hour and a prescription waiting for me within a few hours at my local pharmacy. Great service!”
