The medical treatment and diagnosis of patients in India especially in rural regions are adversely affected due to lack of proper healthcare and a poor patient to doctor ratio. This paper attempts to bring out the concept of cost effective implementation of a robotic doctor for performing advanced telemedicine. The robot designed here assists doctor to carry out medical tests and provides patient-doctor interaction in case of physical absence of the doctor near the patient.
