The walk-in consultation at GLIF Medical lets you quickly get medical advice from Dr Peguy Télusma, MD, in Montreal, without needing to book an appointment in advance.
What the treatment involves
This is a general medical consultation, offered directly at the clinic, for any question or concern that doesn’t require a pre-scheduled appointment. Dr Télusma reviews your situation, answers your questions, and determines, if needed, the appropriate next steps, whether that means referring you to a medical-aesthetic treatment offered at the clinic or recommending you see another healthcare professional.
This option differs from the aesthetic medicine consultation, which includes a full AI-assisted facial analysis. The walk-in consultation is more general and flexible, designed to quickly address a specific question. This flexibility is particularly useful for people with a one-off question or who want to explore different options before committing to a specific treatment, without first having to schedule a specialized consultation. This option reflects a common reality in clinical practice: many medical-aesthetic questions don’t necessarily require an in-depth consultation right away, but still benefit from quick medical input before going further.
Who it’s for
This consultation is suited to people looking for quick medical advice, without needing an appointment booked far in advance. It can be useful for discussing a specific medical-aesthetic concern, asking questions about a treatment already underway, or getting guidance before scheduling a specific procedure. It can also suit new patients who want to meet Dr Télusma for the first time before choosing a particular medical-aesthetic treatment among those offered at the clinic. It can also suit people returning from a treatment performed elsewhere who want an independent medical opinion on their current situation.
As with any medical appointment at the clinic, availability depends on Dr Télusma’s schedule and the volume of consultations already booked.
Process and recovery
The consultation lasts about 30 minutes and takes place directly at the Verdun (Île-des-Sœurs) clinic. It includes a discussion of your situation, a basic medical evaluation and, if needed, recommendations on next steps. Depending on the nature of the question or concern raised, a focused physical exam may be carried out directly during the consultation, time permitting. Booking is done directly online through the clinic’s booking platform, allowing you to choose a time that fits your schedule, without needing to fill out a form or call ahead.
Since this is a consultation and not an invasive procedure, no particular recovery time is required afterward.
Expected results
The goal of this consultation is to provide clear, personalized medical advice within a short timeframe, along with recommendations suited to your situation. Depending on the needs identified, a follow-up appointment or a specific treatment might be suggested, with no result or subsequent procedure guaranteed in advance. In some cases, this consultation alone fully answers your question, with no further follow-up needed.
Good to know
This consultation does not replace a full medical evaluation when one is required for a specific treatment. Depending on your situation, Dr Télusma may recommend a more thorough, dedicated consultation for certain specific treatments. The $200 price for 30 minutes reflects the flexible, one-off nature of this option, distinct from the specialized consultations offered for specific treatments. This option remains, first and foremost, an initial point of medical contact, not a substitute for regular family care, and it is booked the same way as every other appointment at the clinic.
