Annual Physical
This is a preventive visit only! No new problems, old problems or refills. This is where we discuss cancer screenings, vaccinations, and other preventive care topics.
Chronic Conditions Check
This is an appointment that is not unplanned. It occurs every 1, 3, 6, 9, or 12 months, depending on the condition. This is where we order/review lab work and refill medications for that condition.
Please note there is a limitation on the number of conditions we can discuss based on the allotted time.
New Problem Visit
Urgent and non-urgent. This is a visit dedicated to a new problem.
Post-Hospital Visit
After being discharged from the hospital, here we review new medical conditions, new medications, any follow up labs and appointments.
Did you know about the difference in appointments?
Many appointments can now be virtual
Please note that not all appointments may be suitable for virtual visits.
If you request or book a virtual appointment, please be prepared with the following:
- Home blood pressure readings
- Current weight
- Health card number
- Medication names and doses
- Preferred pharmacy information
If you need Dr. Doulaverakis to review any forms or photos (e.g., of a rash or visible concern), please email clear photos to patientcare@drchristina.ca before your appointment. Note: This email is not secure.
If an in-person appointment is preferred, please let our staff know.
Important Email Information
- patientcare@drchristina.ca is checked only during telemedicine appointment times.
- For general inquiries, it is best if you call and leave a voicemail.
Thank you for your cooperation.
