Los Angeles Area Patients Take Advantage of House Call Medicine to Enjoy a Convenient, Easy, and Stress-Free Experience

LOS ANGELES, March 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- A visit to the doctor's office isn't something that most of us look forward to. Receiving care and treatment is important, and ensuring that one is in good health is more than enough of reason for a patient to take time out of their day to head to their local clinic or primary care physician. Unfortunately, such a trip is often marred by transportation hassles and long wait times in uncomfortable waiting rooms. Though such difficulties may seem like an unavoidable aspect of medical care, there are in fact effective alternatives that allow for a much more convenient and less stressful experience. House call medicine, once one of the leading forms of patient/doctor interaction, is experiencing a major resurgence in popularity decades after its former heyday. With high quality services such as House Call Doctor Los Angeles offered by leading physicians like Dr. Michael Farzam, patients are able to enjoy the ultimate combination of comfort along with high quality care.

Before the Civil War, it was common for a doctor to visit the sick, and not the other way around. This was practical for a variety of reasons, not the least of which being that it kept people with contagious illnesses home instead of packed into the crowded waiting rooms of today. The average doctor would by far spend most of their time treating patients at the patients' homes, and would make 30 to 40 house calls per day. The practice continued through the 20^th century, and by 1960 40% of all doctor visits where still house calls. As modern medicine continued to incorporate technology that utilized advanced machines such as X-rays and other equipment, medicine began to shift more rapidly to the hospital. 

Today, house call medicine forms a fraction of doctor visits, though that number is growing again for the first time in many years. As society has seemingly taken a turn toward increased bureaucracy with less human interactions, there has been an increased demand for hands-on, more person to person experiences. House call medicine represents a return to a more intimate doctor-patient dynamic that can still yield highly productive and effective results. Because the majority of doctor's office and clinic visits are for information purposes, or simple diagnosis for common ailments, a house call doctor can provide care without the need for hospital facilities. In addition, the patient is able to enjoy the convenience of receiving quality care in the comfort of their own home. Through services such as House Call Doctor Los Angeles, patients are able to enjoy these conveniences from an experienced medical team they trust. Dr. Michael Farzam and his medical team are board-certified physicians with the expertise and experience to provide an outstanding level of care.
