What happens during a Telehealth consultation?

FAQ·Consults & Care Plans

The Telehealth consultation is a structured, 15-minute session with a WellNest doctor. After you book, you complete a brief intake form so the doctor can prepare. During the consult your doctor reviews your current symptoms, history and priorities, and can go through any labs, imaging or wearable data you share.

You attend by secure encrypted video. This consultation is online only. If a hands-on examination is needed, your doctor can advise on the appropriate next step. Blood work is optional for the consultation. Where it is clinically appropriate, a prescription can be issued. You leave with structured clinical notes, clear guidance, and any recommended next steps. For advice specific to your situation, book a consult so a clinician can assess you directly.
