We provide telehealth services to all our patients.
“Telehealth services use information and communications technologies (ICTs) to deliver health services and transmit health information over both long and short distances. It is about transmitting voice, data, images and information rather than moving care recipients, health professionals or educators. It encompasses diagnosis, treatment, preventive (educational) and curative aspects of healthcare services and typically involves care recipient(s), care providers or educators in the provision of these services directed to the care recipient.”

We use various methods of communication for our telehealth. We can use FaceTime, FaceBook messenger or Doxy for a video concultation. There may be a charge for this consultation. While we do not need you to be at home, we do need you to be able to be in a quiet space. If the Doctor feels the situation is not appropriate they may cancel the appointment and schedule a new one.
