I think the first question here is what software will your doctor be using.

Whatever you choose must be compatible with that.

Afterthought:

I have been participating in Zoom meetings from time to time without any issue. But in those gatherings links are not shared publicly to minimize the chances of zoombombing (so far, we have not been zoombombed). Because installing Zoom in Linux can be annoying, I have been using my Android devices for that purpose; Zoom works quite nicely on Android.

I'm just looking for something to use in testing to make sure it works, then I will worry about getting theirs to work.
