When you need medical care for a minor illness or injury or ongoing health condition, it isn’t always easy or convenient to get to one of our neighborhood Indigo locations or visit your primary care doctor. Why wait? You can connect with an Indigo Virtual Care provider within minutes from wherever you are. All you need is a mobile phone, computer or tablet.
Indigo Online Care offers the same high-quality care from the same trusted and board-certified providers you would normally see in one of our Indigo clinics.
What are the most common conditions Indigo Virtual Care treats?
Indigo Virtual Care treats a variety of minor illnesses and injuries that may lay you up or land you on the sidelines. And just because it isn’t urgent doesn’t mean it isn’t important.
Here are six of the most common conditions we see virtually.
- Colds, sinus infection or flu. When a bug lays you flat, there’s no place like home. Most conditions will eventually clear up on their own with rest and over-the-counter treatment. But if you feel worse or aren’t getting better, one of our online providers will evaluate your symptoms and, as necessary, prescribe medications.
- UTIs and other women’s health issues. If you have recurring UTIs, the last thing you need is a trip to the clinic. Just answer a short online questionnaire and a provider will get back to you in less than an hour with a diagnosis and treatment plan, including a prescription if needed.
- Pink eye (conjunctivitis). Pink eye is one of the most searched urgent and primary care terms online. It’s no wonder. Around 6 million people in the U.S. are affected by the highly contagious condition each year, including loads of school-aged kids. Don’t leave it to Google. One of our Indigo Online Care providers will help you get to the root of your irritating symptoms.
- Migraines and headaches. The occasional headache can be a pain and nuisance. But for many, headaches can be a source of continual and sometimes debilitating pain that can last for days, weeks or longer. Don’t wait for relief. An Indigo Online provider will evaluate your symptoms to understand what type of headaches you are having and what may be triggering them.
-
Sprains and strains. From spring cleaning mishaps to a twisted ankle on the soccer pitch, Indigo Online Care is here to treat minor sprains and strains. A provider will assess your injury and offer guidance on how to relieve your pain and take care of your injury at home. If they suspect something more serious is afoot, you’ll be referred to one of our more than 35 Indigo Health Urgent Care locations for a digital X-ray – and crutches if you need them.
- Rashes and other skin conditions. From bothersome to concerning to downright mysterious, rashes and other skin conditions can be alarming. If you’re not sure what’s got you itching, or you need care to manage an ongoing condition like acne, meet face-to-face with one of our friendly Indigo Online Care providers or set up a Chat Visit and send a picture. Either way, you’ll receive a prompt diagnosis and treatment plan.
