If you don&#8217;t have a doctor, or if your doctor can&#8217;t give you an appointment, we&#8217;ll contact your doctor to inform him or her of the situation, or we&#8217;ll find you a doctor via telemedicine at an additional cost.  <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Do you have doctors or super-nurses at your clinic?<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>The answer is yes.
