I consulted with a doctor online. 【Online Doctor consultation in Japan】

I am trying to improve my English by writing a diary or an essay. After I write it, I have my English teacher online checked it. Below is my original article and you can see modified version after the lesson.

My original essay before a lesson

Technology and health care are the best combination that are developing rapidly. I believe that we will easily manage our health using technology such as smart phones and smart watches. When I a was kid, my parents haved a pedometer and a scale that calculate our body fat percentage.  Now, that we get to know the number of steps and calories we burn by smart phones. We also have apps that show calories we get after we record our meals. Smart watches can measure our heart rates, body temperatures and sleep status.

I’ve been thinking about online medicine since this pandemic. If I make online platforms for doctors and patients like Rarejob, Rarejob is then it could be a place-- just like where teachers and students meet--, it could work the same wa for an onlineplatform for the former and latter. It would be very useful. But I know that it requires tons of rule methods and clearances to provide medicine in the online platform. So, I came up with a good system. If we just have create a chat room or a consultation tool online, that would be easy for everyone. I’m very excited with this idea. But I found that there are already some services just like that the abovementioned.

Online health care and medicine and telemedicine are not common in Japan. But, a number of these sorts of services have been increasing since the coronavirus shock. Then, I tried one of them; LINE Health Care. Some people on twitter say they didn’t get good answers and doctor’s level competency was low. but However, others recommended it. In my view, it was great. It’s easy to use and I’m satisfied with my doctor’s answer opinion. I guess it depends on the doctors we consult with. I wish this online consultation system would help many people and reduce medical costs in Japan in the future.
