Introducing
The Viral Open Access Service
Did we at The Village Doctor diagnose you with a viral disease? have your symptoms worsened??
Why pay again?
We will see you again within the first 7 days of our initial consult for only a nominal fee of £19.
We will re-assess your symptoms.
In first world medicine a good clinician will not prescribe antibiotics for minor ailments, but will be happy to follow you up should your symptoms worsen and issue you with a prescription should it be required.
Many times the answer does not lie in antibiotics.....
It is inevitable that many if not most of personal illness is caused by a virus.
Flu and other respiratory ailments are common infectious viral illnesses which can be highly contagious.
Main symptoms include a raised temperature, tiredness and general exhaustion, headaches and general aches and pains.
It is very possible that after a thorough consultation one of our doctors will diagnose you with a viral illness and you will not receive antibiotics but be introduced to our range of our over the counter medications.
This should not be seen as a negative thing as a course of antibiotics without presence of a bacterial infection can cause significant harm. You should not want to consult a clinician who prescribes antibiotics “willy nilly”
We do appreciate that illnesses can change. A secondary bacterial infection to a virus can occur. This is why we offer a “virus come back service” where if up to one week after the first consultation your symptoms worsen we will see you again for only a nominal charge of £19.
