What is telehealth?

Telehealth at Vine Family Medicine includes virtual medical evaluations in which you meet with a family medicine provider from the comfort of your home, car, office, or hotel — anywhere private. 

You receive the same exceptional medical care virtually using your phone, tablet, or another electronic device, as you do via in-person visits at Vine Family Medicine. The experienced team offers sick visits, follow-up care, and much more through telehealth.

What are the advantages of telehealth services?

The benefits associated with choosing telehealth services at Vine Family Medicine include:

  • Convenience
  • Time and cost savings
  • Medical supervision
  • Faster healing
  • Utmost privacy
  • Superior medical care
  • Comfortability
  • No sick patient exposure

For some patients, having a telehealth option means they’re less likely to skip doctor’s visits. There’s no need to take time off from work or find childcare, making it easier to attend medical appointments. 

Geriatric patients who are ill, want to avoid exposure to sick patients, or have mobility challenges are also excellent candidates for telehealth services.

What happens during telehealth appointments?

During telehealth visits at Vine Family Medicine, your specialist calls you during your scheduled appointment time. 

They discuss the reason for your visit, as well as your medical history, symptoms, medications, lifestyle habits, and more. If necessary, your family medicine specialist offers a psychiatric evaluation to assess your mental health and well-being.

Via video chat, they may complete a limited physical exam (if necessary) to evaluate unusual symptoms you might have. If you need a blood test, urine test, nasal or throat swab, or imaging procedure, you can complete these diagnostic tests in person. 

The Vine Family Medicine team may recommend treatments, such as rest and fluids, other home remedies, wearing a brace or splint for an injury, physical therapy, healthy lifestyle changes, wound care, or taking over-the-counter or prescription medications. 

They follow up with you in person or virtually to ensure you feel better or are properly managing a disease, illness, or injury. 

When should I schedule telehealth visits?

Feel free to contact the Vine Family Medicine office any time you have concerns about your physical or mental health or if you develop unusual symptoms. If you’re not sure if telehealth is the right option for you, the friendly Vine Family Medicine staff can answer your questions over the phone.
