Your Health and Your Schedule Should not be at War
A house call can be the perfect solution when illnesses arise at exactly the wrong time, says Michael Farzam, M.D., of House Call Doctor Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES, April 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Illnesses know no work schedule and no timetable, but that's rarely the case with our places of business. If you've ever woken up the morning of an important meeting only to realize you are as sick as the proverbial dog, or if you've been putting off a needed doctor visit because you can't figure out how to fit it into your schedule, you've experienced this reality first hand. Fortunately, Michael Farzam, M.D. of House Call Doctor Los Angeles offers an alternative for busy people who need to give their health the high priority it deserves. It may have an old fashioned name, but in represents the latest in fine 24/7 urgent care in Playa Del Rey, Beverly Hills, Downtown L.A., or just about anywhere else in the Greater Los Angeles area.
While many of us still assume that house calls are a relic of days long gone, the fact of the matter is that today's computerized information age is fostering a comeback of one of medicine's most noble traditions. A widely respected board certified internist, Dr. Farzam is leading the charge to provide the very latest in home health care to people who are too busy, too ill, or otherwise unable or unwilling to make time-consuming visits to doctor's offices. In the past, house calls were somewhat hampered by the lack of portable equipment and access to information. With today's technology, however, more tests than ever before can be conducted at home, and access to information is obviously far easier in today's mobile world. More often than not, most everything that can be done in a standard doctor's office can be done at a patient's home, office, hotel, or even a work site if need be.
Aside from the simple time savings, there are a number of other important benefits to taking advantage of a house call doctor. First of all, being in a room full of other people, many of whom may be carrying communicable illnesses, is not an ideal place to be when you're ill yourself. When you're sick is obviously also a far from ideal time to stress yourself out by spending hours driving through Southern California traffic. Moreover, illness can strike at any time of the day or night, and it can be next to impossible to find, for example, 24/7 Urgent Care for Westwood residents at midnight on a Sunday.
Still, time is by far the most precious commodity of all for most people today, and for today's extra-busy professionals in such fields as entertainment, law, and, yes, even health care itself, getting to the doctor and then waiting for your turn at an ordinary urgent care center can simply be out of the question. House call doctors like Dr. Farzam are solving this problem for more and more of us.
