Embodiments of the invention provide a method and apparatus for a wireless health monitoring system for interactively monitoring a disease or health condition of a patient by connecting an internet-enabled wireless web device ("WWD") to a digital camera or other health monitoring device. The WWD may accommodate a memory device for enhanced storage capabilities that may be particularly pertinent to data-intensive tasks such as the handling and storage of images or other visual data. The health related data is transmitted from the WWD to a server using standard internet protocols and may be integrated with various operating systems for handheld or wireless devices, especially those with enhanced capabilities for handing images and visual data.
