What is telehealth?
Telehealth is virtual health care that provides health care services at your fingertips. While we cannot offer all of our services virtually, we do offer some services in hopes to make our practice more accessible. This means our providers can treat and monitor your health from a distance, whether you're in a remote location or can't travel to our office.
What are the benefits of telehealth?
While this service cannot replace in-person or emergency visits, these appointments allow for easy communication with our providers and other medical professionals. There are many benefits to telehealth over traditional in-person visits, including:
Access
If you live a far distance from our offices and cannot travel due to limited transportation or mobility, traveling several miles to ask questions regarding your health may not be the most feasible for you. We do not want limited access to be a deterrent from you getting the quality care you deserve. Telehealth gives you access to our medical professionals no matter where you live.
Time
We understand how difficult it can be to find the time for an in-person visit if you have a busy schedule. Whether you’re a busy mom or a working professional, telehealth affords you the ease of scheduling an appointment with our providers from the comfort of your own home or office.
Transportation
If it's difficult to find reliable transportation to our offices, it can sometimes feel like the only option is to cancel your medical visit altogether. Now with telehealth, you have the flexibility to keep your appointment with our providers.
Childcare
We understand how challenging it can sometimes be to find quality childcare. Now, you keep your visit with our providers without feeling obligated to find costly childcare during your appointment.
