Game Day Won’t Wait — But Your Doctor Can. Why Oregon Ducks Fans Need Telehealth This Weekend
Too sick to tailgate? Telehealth keeps you in the game
Eugene is buzzing. The ESPN College GameDay crew is rolling into town, Autzen Stadium is about to be packed to the rafters, and Oregon Ducks fans from all over the state (and beyond) are gearing up for one of the biggest days of the season.
Whether you’re setting up at Moshofsky Center for tailgates at 6AM, gathering your crew at the bar, or planning to watch from your living room in full Ducks gear — there’s only one thing that could ruin your plans:
Getting sick at the worst possible time.
We’ve all been there—scratchy throat the night before kickoff, stomach ache after too many tailgate snacks, or an unexpected migraine right as the “O” chant starts rolling. And good luck getting into an urgent care on Game Day weekend in Eugene. Roads are packed, clinics are overwhelmed, and no one is rescheduling their plans for a waiting room.
That’s where Oregon TeleMed (OTM) comes in like a perfectly timed touchdown pass.
We’re here to make sure that your health doesn’t bench you on the one weekend you’ve been waiting for.
? Why Telehealth Is the Ultimate Game Day Backup Plan
1. Wake Up Sick? No Problem — Get Seen Before Kickoff
You know that moment at 7AM when you realize “Oh no… I don’t feel right” — and GameDay starts in two hours? Instead of panicking (or pretending you’re fine), just log onto OregonTeleMed.com and book an appointment.
Most visits are available same-day or within hours, meaning you can get answers before the first whistle blows.
2. Too Crowded for Clinics — But Telehealth Has No Lines
Let’s be real. Trying to drive anywhere in Eugene on an ESPN GameDay is like trying to find parking at Autzen without a pass—impossible.
Forget navigating detours, traffic cops, and tailgate crowds. With OTM, you can stay in pajamas, sip your coffee, and get treated without leaving your couch.
3. Visiting from Out of Town? You’re Covered Too.
One of the coolest parts of Ducks culture is that people fly in from everywhere for big games. But travelers also forget meds… or lose them… or run out right in the middle of a trip.
If you’re physically in Oregon, even temporarily, we can treat you — even if you’re staying in a hotel, Airbnb, or friend’s living room. Just make sure you’ve got Wi-Fi (or 5G and faith in your phone battery).
4. Tailgate Troubles? We Handle “Oops, I Overdid It.”
Nobody talks about it, but let’s be honest: Game Day does things to the digestive system. Between chili dogs, jalapeño poppers, questionable wings, and adrenaline-fueled beverages — sometimes your stomach waves the white flag.
We can help with:
?? Nausea
?? Digestive issues
?? Headaches
?? Fatigue or dizziness
No judgment — only fast relief.
5. Kids or Vulnerable Family at Home? Stay Safe, Stay Home.
Maybe you’re not going out but still planning a living room watch party. If someone in your house suddenly shows symptoms, you can get answers fast without exposing others. We treat sinus infections, coughs, pink eye, COVID/flu symptoms, and more — all virtually.
6. We’re Oregon-Based — We Get the Culture
Unlike national telehealth companies, OTM is truly local. Our doctors live here. They also know what it’s like to lose their voice yelling “SCO DUCKS!” or to get allergy flare-ups the minute the wind blows through the Willamette Valley.
This isn’t generic healthcare — it’s Oregon healthcare.
7. Open 7 Days a Week — Including Game Day
Healthcare shouldn’t shut down when life ramps up. That’s why we stay open even when the rest of Eugene is at the stadium.
If you need us — we’re here.
