A NOTE FROM DR. LAURA

What can Swell help with?

Dr. Laura explains the care we offer, and when an in-person visit is the safer next step.

Swell Medical can help with many of the concerns that come up in real everyday life. Urgent questions, medication refills, labs, wellness, weight loss, metabolic health, we can even do women's health, skin concerns, follow up, and lots of things, as long as we can safely do it through telemedicine. But it's important to remind you that not everything can be safely cared for online. So every consultation begins with an evaluation. Your clinician and team will decide what is medically appropriate for you. Of course, we never guarantee prescriptions, and sometimes the right answer is actually a test, a video visit, an in-person exam, urgent care, a specialist, or even the emergency room. And if you hear that from us, that's not us turning you away, that's us protecting you. I would rather Swell lose a visit than ask a patient to accept unnecessary risk. Convenience, of course, is important, but safety matters more. And you can expect us to be honest about both.

Secure chat or video

Some visits work well in writing. Others need video.

The clinician may recommend a different format if seeing you or talking in real time would make the evaluation safer.

Secure chat

Often useful for focused concerns, medication questions, and situations where written details or photos provide what the clinician needs.

Video visit

Often better when the clinician needs to see a symptom, ask questions in real time, or work through a more detailed history.
