A lot of the time, a good history and detailed description of symptoms from patients can go a long way in helping to make a diagnosis. I pride myself on being conversational with patients, and I truly enjoy asking the right questions and digging a bit deeper to understand what may be underlying their symptoms so that we can discuss the best treatment options and/or next steps together. While a physical exam is more limited in a virtual environment, I like to make visits as interactive as possible by coaching patients through certain self-exam techniques when appropriate if I feel it may help guide a diagnosis.
