Washington D.C. Telehealth Provider

Get the healthcare you need from home.

A great alternative to in-office visits, which can be time-consuming and inconvenient for those with a busy schedule, is doing telemedicine visits. Telemedicine also ensures access to care when an in-person visit is not possible or optimal.

Telemedicine allows you to receive medical care by using your smartphone, tablet, or computer. The details of how to access your telemedicine visit are provided well in advance of your appointment so you can have your technology ready to get the care you need. 

Who Can Use Telemedicine Services?

Having a telehealth provider is a fantastic option for individuals seeking convenient and efficient healthcare. If you have access to a smartphone, tablet, or computer with an internet connection and are comfortable with video calls or phone consultations, you are likely a good candidate.

Telemedicine is particularly beneficial for:

  • Individuals with Busy Lifestyles: Professionals, parents, and students who find it challenging to carve out time for traditional appointments.

  • Patients with Chronic Conditions: Those requiring regular check-ins, medication adjustments, or ongoing management for conditions like diabetes, hypertension, or anxiety.

  • People in Remote Areas: Patients who live far from medical facilities or have limited access to specialized care..

  • Patients Seeking Follow-Up Care: Ideal for post-treatment check-ins, lab result reviews, and medication management.

  • Those with Minor Acute Illnesses: For non-emergency conditions such as colds, allergies, rashes, or minor infections that don't require a physical exam or immediate lab tests.

  • Individuals Prioritizing Health and Safety: Patients who prefer to minimize exposure to public spaces and germs.

While telemedicine is highly versatile, remember that an in-person visit will still be necessary for certain acute or complex conditions, or those requiring a physical examination. If you have any doubts about whether telemedicine is right for your specific health concern, our team is always available to guide you.

Telemedicine visits are private and HIPPA compliant

All information and data shared during your visit are encrypted and the appointments follow all HIPAA data privacy requirements. 

What medical issues can be addressed with telemedicine?
