Stuck in LA because of COVID-19, I knew I would run out of medication before we could return home. An online search turned up healthPiper and the description sounded way too good to be true. There had to be a catch. Incredibly, the site claimed they didn’t even take your credit card number until after the consultation, diagnosis and suggested prescription. Doubt gave way to a glimmer of hope. And curiosity. Give it a whirl? Why not? At www.healthpiper.com I answered a few basic questions and was soon (within minutes) interacting online with the Doctor’s informative and caring concierge, Emily, who helped me describe my situation in the detail Dr. Freedman would need. I then took a standard survey and we picked a time and date for my online consultation. The secure video software on healthPiper.com worked flawlessly even without using the downloadable app. I talked with Dr. Freedman over the space of perhaps 50 minutes or so. He is thorough, while making me feel comfortable in the virtual space. By “thorough” I mean he never jumps to conclusions. He always asks the questions he needs answered to double check his understanding and seek insights. If you’ve seen more than one doctor in the past, you may be as awed as I was at this man’s medical professionalism. Dr. Freedman displays a demeanor of integrity and compassion together with vast knowledge, and deep insight of a degree I have encountered but rarely over the years. Furthermore, you stay under his round-the-clock care via online chat – you can ask questions and update Dr. Freedman on your condition instantly. He and his assistant are quick to respond to your concerns. Try getting that without being a billionaire celebrity! Through healthPiper.com, Dr. Freedman’s precious – to me priceless – medical expertise and vision are, IMHO, pioneering the healthcare we’ll all need for the 21st Century. Such professional yet personal wellness support recalls the face-to-face family doctor experience you see in old movies, now invisibly amplified by technology to bring effective care that’s more affordable to more people without compromise. I feel as privileged as I am relieved to have seen the future – and in the midst of the new Corona situation, to boot. More than that, I feel part of something exciting.
