(iii) an interactive clinician device;

(b) accessing the clinician station by an operator, wherein the operator when accessing the clinician station goes through an identification process to gain access to the clinician station, the identification process includes the operator verifying the operator's professional status;

(c) providing a light source communicable with the clinician station, the light source emitting a light that corresponds with the operator's professional status;

(d) adjusting a position of the camera by the operator so that the camera head is located in front of the clinician electronic display, between the operator and the clinician station electronic display, at a height which is at eye level with the operator accessing the clinician station;

(e) providing a patient station communicable over the network, the patient station including at least one display screen;

(f) providing a cloud based system communicable over a network;

(g) linking the clinician station with the patient station, wherein the clinician station and the patient station are linked by the cloud based system over the network; and

(h) enabling bi-lateral communication between the clinician station and the patient station to display a live-image of the operator on the display screen of the patient station with the camera head positioned at the eye level of the operator;

(i) visibly displaying on the display screen of the patient's station the light emitted from the light source communicable with the linked clinician station that corresponds with the operator's professional status.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the cloud based system comprises a computing system, a registration authentication server, and a database.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the clinician station has functional control over a plurality of systems provided inside of the patient station.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the plurality of systems of the patient station include a locking system, and a sanitation system.

14. A method of providing remote real time patient ailment diagnoses, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a clinician station communicable over a network, the clinician station comprising:

(i) an electronic display;

(ii) a camera comprising a camera head and an elongated adjustable arm, the elongated adjustable arm having a first end connected to the electronic display and a second end connected to the camera head; and

(iii) an interactive clinician device;

(b) accessing the clinician station by an operator, wherein the operator when accessing the clinician station goes through an identification process to gain access to the clinician station, the identification process includes the operator verifying the operator's professional status;

(c) providing a light source communicable with the clinician station, the light source emitting a light that corresponds with the operator's professional status;

(d) positioning of the camera head by the operator so that the camera head is located in front of the clinician station screen, between the operator and the clinician station display, at a height which is at eye level with the operator accessing the clinician station;

(e) providing a patient station communicable over the network, the patient station including at least one display screen;
