What are house calls?

House calls are medical care in your home, where your providers come to you. At Merak Health, the team has a simple goal: keeping you as healthy as possible. However, the team understands that it’s sometimes difficult or inconvenient to fit office visits into your busy schedule — so they offer house calls to make your life easier. 

What medical care do house calls cover?

House calls cover a broad spectrum of medical care. In general, the Merak Health team can address most issues that typically require an office visit during a house call. A few of the many different reasons that Merak Health patients request house calls include:

• Annual physical exams
• COVID-19
• Flu 
• Common colds
• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Allergies
• Ear infections
• Strep throat

During house calls, the team can take samples for lab tests, perform physical exams, diagnose issues, monitor chronic conditions, and prescribe effective treatments to help you recover. Achieving excellent health may require many different types of medical care, so Merak Health tailors each patient’s house call to their unique issues. 

How do I arrange a house call?

Merak Health makes house calls easy. You can arrange your in-home visit by calling the office or using the online booking feature anytime. In most cases, the team can arrange a house call around your schedule very quickly. 

What are the advantages of house calls?

House calls offer many advantages, including:

• Staying in the comfort of your own home
• Skipping the travel time to the office or waiting time
• Avoiding exposure to others on the way to the office

With house calls, you can continue your regular routine in your home until your appointment time, making them convenient to fit in medical care with your daily schedule. 

With Merak Health, the same experienced providers you see in the office come to your home to manage your medical needs. This can give you great peace of mind because you’ll know that your house call providers actually know and understand your medical history and particular needs.
