A rolled ankle, a sore wrist or a strained back from yard work. The physician can review it on video, go over home care, and tell you when an X-ray or an in-person exam makes more sense. Think sore throat, sinus congestion, cough, flu-like aches, itchy red eyes, burning with urination or a new rash. The physician can talk through your symptoms on video and recommend next steps, including an in-person visit if needed.
Medication refills, when appropriate. Ran out of a blood pressure, cholesterol or other maintenance medication you already take? The physician can review your history and, when it's appropriate, send a refill to your pharmacy.
We also see adults for back and spine pain, medical weight loss consultations and men's health concerns, all for the same $49. The physician will recommend in-person care whenever it's a better fit.
