As we head into those cold and flu months, I can’t help but brace myself for impact! Now that I have a two year old, it will be so much harder to keep those pesky germs at bay. He is touching anything he can reach, putting everything in his mouth, and giving sloppy mouth kisses to everyone- yuck!
That is why this year, I’ll be keeping Amwell close by to be able to access at a moment’s notice. I try as hard as I can to avoid the doctor’s office and urgent care clinics. Each time we go, we seem to come back with a bug worse than what we went in with. And with the Measles floating around PDX again, it’s not a chance I’m willing to take.
We tried out Amwell for the first time last year when we had just moved to Eugene. We didn’t have a regular doctor to visit, and the nearest urgent care was nearly an hour away. It was nearly 2am, and he hadn’t slept a wink all day- I honestly didn’t think much of it until then. The poor guy was trying so hard to go to sleep, but every time his eyes closed, he would wake again crying in pain.
While he usually has bad gas, he also hadn’t had a poopy diaper in several days. So of course, I pulled the rookie parent move and look on the internet (bad idea every time!) and start freaking out with the dozens of possibilities that could be wrong with him. I figured I would just give him a bit of infant pain relief medicine and we would be all good, but upon looking at the bottle, it said for under 2 years to ask a pediatrician! How is this considered infant medication if you won’t give me the dose for an infant?!
Not daring to look on the internet for inaccurate info since he was only 9 weeks old, and with all doctor offices closed and my baby screaming, I decided to give Amwell a try. Amwell is a 24/7 national telehealth company, connecting users with board-certified, licensed doctors for immediate and live, online visits—day or night, on either mobile or desktop. It’s absolutely perfect for situations like these. Just a few of their services include: minor illnesses and injuries, general health and wellness concerns, prescription refills, chronic condition management, and so much more. I was so pleased to find they even have their own children’s pediatric area. And what’s even better? Right now you can use the promo code Amwell50 for 50% off your first $69 visit!
So, the next time you are too under the weather to wait in line at an urgent care, need medical advice, or want a prescription to be ready first thing in the morning, have the appointment in your living room with Amwell. Use the Amwell promo code Amwell50 for 50% off your first $69 visit! Being a new mom who doesn’t want to leave my house or put on real pants, I know this will not be the last time I use it!
