If you have a telehealth appointment
If your first consultation with A/Prof Braslins is through telehealth, he will still need the same information. Your GP or clinic staff can work with the team at Riga Medical to assist with this.
What to expect during your appointment
During your consultation, A/Prof Braslins will ask you about your symptoms, your prior and current health problems, he will review your test results and X-rays, and then he will examine you.
If required, you may be referred for additional laboratory tests, X-rays or other diagnostic services.
We will work together with you and your referring doctor to develop a treatment plan that matches your needs.
Consultation fee
At Riga Medical we are a bulk billing practice.
