Disclosure: This is a sponsored conversation with Mums the Word Network and Amwell. All opinions are my own.
If you have not heard of Amwell, it is short for American Well and it is the nation’s largest telehealth company, connecting users with board certified, licensed doctors, dieticians and psychologists for immediate and live, online visits.
You can use it day or night, on either mobile or desktop. The general conditions that the doctors encounter on our telehealth platform include: minor illnesses and injuries, general health and wellness concerns, prescription refills, and chronic condition management. They employ primary care doctors, specialist physicians, licensed behavioral therapists and registered dietitians to meet the patient’s health and wellness needs. Doctors in Amwell’s app are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and are dedicated to your health from the comfort of your home.Between my health problems and medications that I take, even something as simply as a sore throat, can throw for a loop. This is going back to the days when doctors used to make house calls. I usually can tell what is wrong with my body, but it is great to have a doctor there who can tell me what to take and what to do.
What I like about Amwell is that online doctor visits are fast and convenient. They are also reliable. I get the information and advice I need to get better sooner. It really helped me to reduce my illness dramatically following advice from the doctor. I love having a certified doctor to speak to from the comfort of my home.
I got on right away and got the menu to find my doctor.

REASONS TO USE AMWELL:
The following lists the rational and emotional reasons clients and consumers to believe what we say and use our product/service. Included are all major copy points and visual evidence listed in order of relative importance to the client/consumer.
1. Lower cost. Consumers expect online visits to be cost-savers; with in-office visits costing, on average, $82 for first-time patients according to the Healthcare Blue Book, Amwell offers a $49 physician visit – a savings of $33. Great option for students in college looking for cost-effective healthcare or those between jobs and without insurance.
2. Accessibility. After hours, on weekends and in the middle of the night (24/7/365) availability. Great for those who do have transportation or when you don’t feel well enough to drive and those who are newly relocated and don’t have providers yet.
3. Convenience. Consumers are looking for a faster appointment. Now they don’t need to schedule an appointment nor do they need to wait to be seen, especially if on vacation or business travel. The doctor can be seen from the comfort and convenience of their own home.
4. Quick prescriptions. Consumers would rather have an online video visit than an in-office visit to obtain common primary care prescriptions.
5. Peace of mind. Rather than self-diagnosing or visiting a social forum for medical advice, users can obtain second opinions directly from board certified, licensed doctors.
If you are a busy individual/parent, Amwell is definitely worth considering. In fact, you may even consider them to be the Amazon of healthcare.
