A second opinion, respectfully
Some people want your view on a plan from another doctor or physio. Respect the other professional, stay within what you can assess, and encourage the person to discuss changes with their treating team. Never criticise another professional to a patient.
Who it helps
- People in smaller towns without an experienced physio nearby.
- Patients following a surgeon's protocol between check-ups.
- Children abroad who want a physio to check on parents in India.
- Gym-goers and runners checking technique.

Make it its own service with fixed time and fee, bookable online with UPI payment. Use video appointments that open from a link. See video consultations and online booking.
Know when to stop
If something does not fit, such as unusual pain, red flags or loss of function, tell them clearly to get an in-person assessment, and record that advice.
Grow from there
