Is there a doctor in the house?

Recently I’ve had a few parents of kids with special needs, Autism spectrum, asking me if I know of any doctor that is able to do a “sports exam” for their child to be able to participate in Special Olympics.

The only pediatrician/doctor I know works in Canada.

I’m wondering if it’s been difficult for parents to get an appointment, they only have until January 13th to have the exam completed, and they just found out a month ago it needed to be done.

Does anyone know of a doctor who may be able to do sports exam for kids with Autism?

Appreciate any response.

Out of country prescription refills

Basically, we have a 79yr old Canadian trapped with us. Risk of her returning to Canada wasn’t the risk her family wanted to take. The only drawback of this, getting her prescriptions refilled. Her son didn’t want to listen to me to call his doctor and explain and see if a local doctor can call in the prescription.

Does anyone know if there is an actual way for people out of country who are stuck here and need prescription refills to get this done without having to risk going to an actual doctor office? We’ve been strict with our stay at home due to her age and would prefer her not going anywhere still.

Thanks.
