At first, I wondered if non-face-to-face weight loss herbal medicine prescriptions could really work. After actually using it in clinical practice, the pros and cons became clear. The advantages: First, there are almost no time or location constraints. Office workers can receive a prescription via video consultation after work or on weekends. Second, after the herbal medicine is prepared, it can be delivered by courier, reducing the burden of visiting the clinic. Third, regular video consultations make it easy to provide immediate feedback on dietary habits and lifestyle patterns. However, there are definite drawbacks. In Traditional Korean Medicine, pulse diagnosis (脈診) — feeling the pulse at the wrist — is crucial, and without it, subtle conditions such as blood deficiency (血虛) or blood stasis (瘀血) may be missed. Tongue diagnosis (舌診) is also difficult via screen, as the color and texture of the coating (苔) cannot be accurately observed. Constitutional differentiation (e.g., Taeeumin, Soyangin) is more accurate when directly seeing the face and body shape. Ultimately, it depends on the situation. If the main symptoms are relatively simple patterns like indigestion due to spleen deficiency (脾虛) or bloating due to dampness-phlegm (濕痰), non-face-to-face care can be sufficient. In contrast, if there is long-term yo-yo dieting, hormonal imbalance, or suspected complex blood stasis (瘀血), it is safer to visit the clinic for a precise diagnosis. When I conduct non-face-to-face consultations, if I feel that pulse diagnosis would be beneficial, I recommend an in-person visit. I hope the patient can choose a convenient method while we work together to compensate for any shortcomings. Although it is not possible to guarantee the cost or effect of the medicine due to medical regulations, please feel free to ask any questions.
