Yes, digital follow-up consultations can be very helpful for both patients and healthcare professionals, especially for reviewing progress, discussing reports, and providing follow-up guidance whenever clinically appropriate. They can reduce travel time, waiting time, and improve continuity of care. Features such as appointment reminders, secure sharing of medical records, digital prescriptions, and teleconsultations can enhance patient convenience and improve follow-up compliance. However, whether online follow-up is suitable depends on the patient’s clinical condition, and some situations still require an in-person consultation.
