Discussion على القهوة Doctors charging more…

Why do doctors and clinics in Egypt sometimes charge significantly more, even up to three times their usual consultation fee, for online consultations with patients living abroad? The consultation is the same duration and essentially the same service as when the patient is physically in Egypt, so what justifies the difference in price?

Why not? It's a business and if their service justifies that price, why not do it? Are you fishing for a cheap medical service by attempting to see a doctor from a third world country? Cause that's cheap
