First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looked at whether using telemedicine (video or phone doctor visits) could help people in rural northern Nigeria see a urologist faster than traveling to an in-person appointment. About 220 adults with urologic problems took part. Researchers measured how quickly each group got care and how satisfied patients were. The goal was to see if telemedicine can improve access to specialist care in remote areas.
