What can an online video consultation do?
You can describe your symptoms to our experienced laryngologists. It is also possible for you to send us your medical records and/or images in advance, which we can then analyse and discuss with you. We can help you to better understand your symptoms and give you recommendations on what further (therapeutic) measures you should take to resolve your symptoms.
For which complaints can a video consultation be useful?
-
You would like an assessment of (previously submitted) video and image recordings – e.g. a second opinion. *
-
You would like to find out about treatment for globus symptoms (lump in the throat).
-
You think you have R-CPD (I-can’t-burp) and would like to find out about treatment.
-
You have a cough or need to clear your throat and would like to find out about treatment options.
-
You are not sure whether the (long) journey to Hamburg is really worth it and would like to talk to a doctor first.
* In the case of organic voice disorders (nodules, cysts, polyps, recurrent paresis, etc.), a video consultation only makes sense if you send us meaningful image or video material of your vocal cords in advance.
