What should I expect during telehealth appointments?

During a virtual appointment, your provider calls you and discusses the reason for your appointment. They ask about your medical history, symptoms, lifestyle, medications, and goals. If you need on-site diagnostic testing, such as ultrasounds, electrocardiograms (EKGs), stress testing, X-rays, or in-house labs, your provider offers an in-office appointment. 

However, many primary health concerns, including illnesses, injuries, chronic diseases, and mental health challenges, can be addressed via telehealth. If you have visible symptoms of a medical problem, you can show your provider using a phone, tablet, or computer. 

Your primary care specialist tailors a treatment plan that may include medications, at-home care, weight loss, therapy, or lifestyle changes. They follow up to optimize your health, well-being, and overall quality of life. If you need to see another provider for specialty care, the experts at Care Rite, PLLC, refer you.
