No wonder house call doctors are on the rise. In a busy city such as Los Angeles, getting anything done can seem near impossible. From endless traffic to working around packed schedules, making and getting to appointments can easily become frustrating. It’s bad enough when you’re well, but when you’re sick it can be hellish. When you are feeling ill, you need rest and care. Board certified internist Dr. Michael Farzam and House Call Doctor Los Angeles are helping patients feel their best, one visit at a time.
A house call doctor was once commonplace. The reason medicine moved away from doctors going directly to patients’ homes to patients exclusively visiting the doctor in an office was because of late 20th century advancements in medical technology. The equipment was large and immobile, thus requiring a permanent office. However, like most technological advancements we’ve seen over the last few decades, miniaturization is rife; machines that once filled entire rooms now fit in the palm of our hand. The equipment that doctors use is now compact enough to allow mobility once again, allowing physicians to visit their patients and provide the same excellent care wherever the patient might be.
The benefits of being seen by a house call doctor like Dr. Farzam are many – starting with not having to worry about making your condition worse by getting stressed out in traffic and waiting in an uncomfortable room with other sick people. Even better, Dr. Farzam and his team are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
In most cases, the best thing you can do for yourself when you’re not feeling well is to rest at home and let a doctor come to you. For more information about Dr. Michael Farzam and House Call Doctor Los Angeles, call or visit our contact page today.
