How is payment handled for appointments with Dr. Deol? Is it covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP)?
In ON, medical consultations with specialists like Dr. Deol are typically covered by your provincial health insurance (Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP)) when you present a valid health card and have the required referral. You generally do not pay directly for the consultation service itself. Some specific procedures, forms, or administrative tasks might not be covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) and may incur a separate fee according to provincial guidelines. Please inquire if you have questions about uninsured services.
Can I book an appointment directly or do I absolutely need a referral?
A referral from your family physician or another medical specialist is required to see Dr. Deol. As experts in Internal Medicine and Geriatric Care, Internists and Geriatricians see patients based on specific medical questions posed by the referring doctor. This ensures continuity of care and that the consultation is appropriate for your needs. Please have your doctor forward the referral information.
Can a family member or friend accompany me to the appointment?
Yes, absolutely. Patients are welcome to bring a family member, friend, or caregiver to their appointment for support, to help recall information, or to ask questions. Especially for complex discussions or if memory is a concern, having a second person present can be very beneficial.
Is the focus mainly on diseases or also on daily function?
While diagnosing and managing diseases like Management of Patients with Multiple Comorbidities or Falls, Mobility & Balance Disorders is crucial, Dr. Deol also places significant emphasis on maintaining or improving daily function and quality of life, especially for older adults. The goal is often to help patients remain as independent and active as possible, addressing issues like mobility, self-care, and participation in meaningful activities.
