Question ID: 316504
I am looking for a listing of doctors that can work remotely to
diagnose mild medical problems.  With the advent of web cams, email,
secure web sites, and of course the telephone, mild medical conditions
could reasonably be diagnosed or advice given on whether in-person
medical treatment is warranted.  If my price is not high enough, let
me know as I am willing to negotiate.

Thanks for coming back.
  
I'm sorry that some of the links were dead (I didn't test each one).

Thanks for the feedback.
jlb0001-ga rated this answer:2 out of 5 stars
It took some time to get a decent answer, but this is acceptable.  For
future referece, the Google directory is better than DMOZ links b/c it
shows the PageRank (saving alot of time rifling through less than
useful sites).
