Virtual Hormone and Hormone and Metabolic Care Across Newfoundland and Labrador
TelePlus Care connects residents across Newfoundland and Labrador with a licensed doctor who assesses and manages common hormonal, thyroid, and metabolic concerns by video. The doctor can order the relevant blood work and refer you to a specialist when advanced care is needed. This is fast access to a doctor, not a replacement for specialist metabolic medicine, which is especially helpful for patients in rural and remote communities far from a specialist clinic. Consider a visit if you notice any of the following:
- Fatigue, weight changes, or temperature sensitivity that may point to thyroid issues
- Increased thirst, frequent urination, or a known type 2 diabetes or prediabetes diagnosis
- Irregular periods, acne, or unwanted hair growth that may suggest PCOS
- Low energy, reduced libido, or symptoms of low testosterone
- General hormone or metabolic symptoms you want reviewed by a doctor
Conditions Our Physicians Assess Virtually
A licensed doctor can assess and manage many common hormone concerns without long travel to a regional centre. The doctor orders labs, reviews results, and starts or adjusts common medications. Commonly managed concerns include hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, type 2 diabetes and prediabetes, PCOS, low testosterone, and general hormone and metabolic symptoms. Complex cases are referred to a specialist.
Lab Work and Pharmacies Across the Province
If blood work is needed, your doctor sends a requisition to an NL Health Services lab near you, so you can complete tests such as TSH, A1C, or a hormone panel without travelling far from home. Once results are back, the doctor reviews them with you and adjusts your plan. Any prescriptions can be filled at the pharmacy of your choice across the province, including Shoppers Drug Mart, Lawtons Drugs, Sobeys Pharmacy, Pharmasave, or an independent community pharmacy.
When to Seek In-Person or Emergency Care
Virtual care suits many ongoing hormone and metabolic concerns, but some symptoms need urgent in-person assessment at your nearest hospital emergency department, such as the Health Sciences Centre in St. John's or your closest regional hospital, or by calling 911.
- Signs of very high blood sugar such as confusion, deep rapid breathing, or fruity breath
- Signs of very low blood sugar such as shakiness, sweating, fainting, or seizures
- Possible thyroid storm: high fever, racing heart, agitation, or confusion
- Severe dehydration, persistent vomiting, or inability to keep fluids down
- Any sudden, severe, or rapidly worsening symptoms
