You won’t be surprised to hear that some subspecialties like Oncology, Cardiology and Neurology are always in demand. But plenty of others, including: dentistry, Orthopedics, ENT’s OBGYNs and others, are also finding demand for their services. You may be under the impression that this is a difficult and costly service to begin offering, but that just simply is not the case.
The trend had already begun, but the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has kicked it into overdrive.

Subspecialists are finding a growing opportunity to expand their domain to patients who otherwise might not have this specialization available to them.
