About Telehealth

What is telehealth?

Telehealth is a modern health care approach that uses technology to connect providers and patients remotely. 

Whether it's a video chat with our team, a quick text, or an online message, telehealth makes it easier to access medical care and support from wherever you are. It offers a convenient, personalized alternative to traditional in-office visits.

What are the benefits of telehealth?

Telehealth offers many benefits for patients, including:

Convenience

Telehealth brings the doctor's office to the comfort of your home. It means no commuting, no waiting rooms, and accommodating appointments that fit your schedule.

Expanded accessibility

Remote access breaks down geographic barriers, allowing people in remote areas or with limited mobility to connect with our health care professionals no matter where they live.

Continuity of care

Telehealth enables you to maintain a consistent connection with our health care team. Whether it's for a follow-up, managing a chronic condition, or seeking specialist advice, telehealth ensures you're never out of touch with your care plan of service.

Reduced exposure to infections

When you don’t have to leave home and sit in crowded waiting rooms, you’re less likely to contract illnesses and infections like the common cold, flu, or COVID-19.

Cost savings

Telehealth eliminates travel expenses, parking fees, and time away from work, saving you money on unnecessary expenses. It can also reduce hospitalizations, which lowers your risk of hefty hospital bills.
