Dr. AI Is An Alexa Skill That Can Diagnose You
No one likes to go to the doctor. Even if you aren’t sick when you get there, you probably will be when after spending an hour and a half in the waiting room. On the other hand, not going to the doctor is courting disaster. If you have a cold that has you feeling horrible, but not horrible enough to go to the doctor, give Dr. AI a try.
Alexa, can you please diagnose me?
The doctor’s advice should not be taken lightly; if your symptoms worsen, you should go to the doctor. However, AI can be a helpful tool when you think you have a cold and don’t know what over-the-counter treatment to take.

When you’re feeling sick, it’s easy to eat junk food. But it’s better to give your body what it needs—quality, healthy food that will give you the energy you need to beat the cold and get back on your feet.
If you’re looking for a quick and easy meal, GrubHub is a great option. However, there are other delivery options from restaurants like Panera Bread that can be more convenient. You might also want to check out smaller local restaurants with Alexa skills.
Alexa can provide you with recipes on how to make your own soup at home. Instead of reaching for something unhealthy, order warm soup to soothe the savage cold.
Alexa Can Order a Rideshare To Take You To The Doctor
If you’re feeling sick and can’t walk, don’t drive. If you’re feeling sick and can’t take care of yourself, ask Alexa to order an Uber, Lyft, or your preferred rideshare service to take you to your local physician.
The Alexa skill is the best option in both cases. The Alexa skill is easy to activate. Once you’ve linked your Uber or Lyft account to Alexa, she can automatically hail a ride to wherever you want to go.
Alexa Can Tell You The Status Of Your Prescription & When It Ships
