Online Medical Consultation

Get an online medical consultation for non-emergency health concerns. Choose a written family medicine question or book an available specialist consultation depending on the type of medical help you need.

What Is an Online Medical Consultation?

An online medical consultation allows you to discuss a non-emergency health concern with a doctor remotely. Depending on the service, this may involve a written medical question or a scheduled online appointment with a specialist.

Online consultation can be useful when you need help understanding symptoms, medication questions, diabetes or thyroid concerns, laboratory results, follow-up issues, or whether your situation may require an in-person medical assessment.

Emergency warning: online consultation is not suitable for chest pain, stroke symptoms, severe breathing difficulty, fainting, severe allergic reactions, heavy bleeding, severe dehydration, confusion, loss of consciousness, or another potentially life-threatening condition. Seek immediate emergency medical care.

What Can You Discuss During an Online Consultation?

General Symptoms

Fatigue, dizziness, mild gastrointestinal symptoms, headaches, blood pressure concerns, medication questions, and other non-emergency issues.

Diabetes

Fasting glucose, after-meal readings, HbA1c, prediabetes, diabetes medicines, insulin use, and lifestyle questions.

Thyroid and Endocrinology

TSH, FT4, FT3, thyroid antibodies, thyroid medicines, insulin resistance, hormone concerns, and endocrine laboratory results.

Laboratory and Medical Reports

Blood tests, urine tests, cholesterol, liver and kidney function, CBC, thyroid tests, glucose results, and other common medical reports.

Written Medical Question or Scheduled Appointment?

Not every medical concern requires the same type of online service. A straightforward general medical question may be suitable for a written response, while specialist problems may require a scheduled consultation.

For Dr. Albana Greca, patients can submit non-emergency family medicine questions through the written question service.

For endocrinology and other specialist consultations, patients should first check the doctor’s available appointment times. This helps ensure that a specialist consultation is booked only when the doctor is available.

What Information Should You Prepare?

Before submitting your question or attending your appointment, prepare your age, current symptoms, how long the problem has been present, medical conditions, medications, allergies, recent measurements, and relevant test results.

If your question involves blood sugar, include whether the reading was fasting, before meals, after meals, or random. If your question involves laboratory results, send the complete report whenever possible.

Online Consultations Have Important Limits

A remote consultation cannot replace every in-person medical visit. Some symptoms require physical examination, diagnostic testing, imaging, urgent laboratory work, or hospital care.

The doctor may recommend local medical assessment if your condition cannot be safely evaluated remotely.

Online Medical Consultation in English

Doctor Online Now provides English-language medical service pages for patients seeking remote medical guidance. This can be useful for international residents, people connected with Albania, expatriates, travelers, and patients who prefer to communicate in English.
