Teladoc
Another option is to contact Teladoc to resolve minor medical issues quickly, easily, and remotely. You will have access to board-certified, telemedicine-trained doctors via phone, mobile, and video 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can call Teladoc at 1-800-Teladoc (835-2362) or go online.
Urgent Care
If you need care that’s more than minor, like fractures, sprains, or other urgent injuries, urgent care centers also offer an economical alternative to ER visits. If you have chest pain, trouble breathing, bad bleeding, or other symptoms that you believe may put your life at risk you should go to the emergency room. But not every health need is a medical emergency.
