TelaDoc Saved My Life ! I was driving to a
meeting and felt an odd numbness in my left foot.
I called TelaDoc from the road. About 15 minutes
later I was on the phone with the doctor. He
asked me some questions and immediately advised
that I turn around and go to the emergency room.
Im glad I did I had a blood clot in my leg
which was successfully treated in the hospital.
I am so thankful I called TelaDoc! Nelson

TelaDoc Saved Me Time and Money! One night my
12-year-old son had an upset stomach and vomited
a couple of times. I considered taking him to
the emergency room but, instead of waking up my
other children and dragging them to the hospital,
I called TelaDoc. Within 30 minutes I was on the
phone with a doctor. After asking a battery of
questions, the doctor suggested fluids, rest and
a call to my doctor in the morning. Im thankful
that I avoided the time and expense of going to
the ER. Mary (Mother)
