Totally ineffective treatment
Unfortunately this is my 2nd time I have received totally ineffective treatment from a Teledoc physician. This time I called because I could feel the onset of a cold and being a single parent I requested a steroid to help my body fight it off faster. The Physician refused and told me “steroids don’t work” and instead perscribed me a anti-histamine. He claimed it would reduce my post nasal drip symptoms and I would feel better. Not only did this no work, I ended up developing an inner ear infection on Christmas Day and has to go to Urgent Care because of the excruciating pain. So what could have been mitigated on Day 1 has now turned into an 8 day ordeal and now it’s nearly impossible for me to get enough rest being a single parent with two kids constantly needing me. I will most likely just go to Urgent Care next time and skip Teladoc.
