Televisits

As medical care and technology have evolved, we are now able to offer video televisits to those patients whose condition does not allow for them to come to the office in person. In this case, you can stay in the comfort of your home, and still “see” your provider. Televisits are covered by many/most insurance policies. They are accomplished through an application called Doximity.

In order to participate in a televisit, you will need a smartphone. The process is this:

  1. Right before your visit, you’ll get a phone call from our staff to get information for the visit, such as vital signs, current medications, chief complaints, etc. She will confirm that you have received the text. She may also collect your copay.
  2. At time of visit, click on the link in that text to join the call.
  3. Your provider will able to join the call, much like a “Facetime” call.
