Talk to a Doctor Online Today: Convenient Care Now (NJ Residents Only)

This is a sponsored conversation from Mums the Word Network and Convenient Care Now. All opinions are my own

Having kids you know the Doctor Office is a place you will be visiting regularly during their youth. But sometimes you just don’t want to GO.  I feel that way this week, I don’t want to travel in the rain or deal with rude people in the office.  My daughter is home from school today because she is constipated. It has been 3 days since she has had a bowel movement and she is in PAIN!  I don’t want to take her on the bus when she feels this crappy! 

My friend told me about Hackensack Convenient Care Now (Only Available in New Jersey now) where I can talk to a DOCTOR online.  A real DOCTOR, I asked…YES, she said.  So I looked into it and decided to give it a shot. I can talk to a doctor from the comfort of my couch anytime of the day, 24/7! Amazing.

Dr. Han came on, and we were able to tell him what was going on with my daughter.  He asked her questions about what she has eaten in the past couple days.  He even had me press on her stomach to see if she had any pain in particular spots. He gave us some suggestions on what we can buy over the counter and even called in our order so we could pick it up. He also gave us some advice to avoid this happening again. He made my daughter laugh and feel better knowing this will pass soon. She didn’t believe me. 

This was a pleasant visit, and it felt good knowing I could do this on my time at home. Where was this when my kids were babies, dragging them and all their stuff to the doctor was horrible plus stressful. Now I can call no matter what time it is and know the Doctors on Convenient Care Now are board certified, with an average of 15 years in practice.
