Telehealth involves the use of electronic communications to enable health care providers at different locations to share individual patient medical information for the purpose of improving patient care. One of our Medical Assistants will be with you during your visit, and you will be connected to a provider through video conferencing technology. The Medical Assistant will manage the equipment and the diagnostic tools, like stethoscope to hear your heart and an otoscope to see in your ears. He or she will also assist the provider with your physical examination. The provider will make referrals for specialty care if needed.
