Physical Therapy Consultation
Welcome to AVORA consultation!
AVORA has a new tool to assist patients who are unable to travel to the AVORA Health Center for diagnostic testing and treatment of balance or vestibular disorders. We establish you as a real patient, because you are a real patient. consultation allows our doctors to interact with you using voice, video, and text formats over your computer, tablet, or smart phone. The best part is, you get to attend the appointment from the convenience of your own home.
Consultation has several major benefits to our patients. First, you have the ability to get advice from a reputable professional about your condition much more quickly than scheduling an appointment in person. Second, it is a great tool for getting a second opinion on the care you may already be receiving from another healthcare professional. Third, the price is right. Where else can you receive world class care from a specialist doctor who knows enough to teach it, for as little as $100?
Some of the conditions we discuss through consultation include; BPPV, Poor balance, Post Injury or Illness, Neurological Disorders, Parkinson's disease, Falling and Fall Prevention, Debility & Disequilibrium, Brain Function, Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Headaches, Fogginess, Vestibular Disorders (Dizziness), Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), Atypical BPPV, Cervicogenic Dizziness, General Dizziness, Mal de Debarquement Syndrome (MdDS), Vertigo, Motion sickness, Peripheral Vestibular Disorders, Central Vestibular Disorders, Unilateral & Bilateral Vestibular Losses.
The cost for a consultation is $100 USD for each 30 minute session. To initiate a consultation, please contact us at (828) 505-2664 to set up an account, which only requires your name, date of birth, and phone number. International callers should call us by entering their own country's international outbound access code followed by 1, then our number. For example, patients calling from Europe should contact us by dialing 00-1-828-505-2664. Once your account has been created, payments can be made online using the PAY MY BILL link (entering your AVORA Patient ID in the Patient ID section).
At this time, we are only able to offer English speaking services. We hope that changes in the future. Please remember that this service is designed for remote patient care. If you are a health care provider or professional seeking educational information, advice, or general consultation in our area of expertise, we ask that you contact us by email to make an appointment for that particular type of service.
Once payment has been made, we will contact you in 1 business day to schedule a date and time for your appointment. After your appointment has been scheduled, you will receive an email confirmation from us with instructions to login to our consultation portal using your web browser. We recommend that you login before your appointment time so that you can test your video and audio are working correctly. The portal also allows for typing text for patients who have difficulty with their video or audio.
Once your appointment time arrives, your doctor will join you in your session and you will both have two way audio, video, and texting abilities to communicate with each other.
