One: The patient has symptoms and needs to know the diagnosis behind those symptoms or need to confirm the diagnosis he/she already has for those symptoms and wants to know the most appropriate treatment plan for their disease..
Two: The second reason that patients request online consultations is to have a medical education session, a questions and answers session, a discussion of the patient's condition.
