Got Some Pollen Stinging Your Eyes? ZocDoc Now Makes Allergist Appointments
Last week was the start of Spring…you know here in NYC we welcomed Spring with some snow, some pollen and a large batch of watery eyes and runny noses. When Benadryl no longer works, it’s time to take yourself to the allergist for some testing.
NY-based ZocDoc has just announced that they have added allergists to the lineup of doctors and specialists you can book online. The list now includes: allergists, primary care doctors, dentists, dermatologists, OBGYN, ENT and orthopedic surgeons. Assuming their business model is still the same, all of the listed doctors pay a fee to ZocDoc when an appointment is made except for primary care doctors.
Apparently booking an allergist appointment can take up to three weeks. The real benefit of ZocDoc is that everyone wins… the doctor wins because he/she can fill up their openings, the patient wins because they can get in straight away and ZocDoc wins because they get paid on completed visits.
Check out my real world review of ZocDoc when I attempted to go to the dentist.
