Tahlequah is about 54 miles southeast of Tulsa, straight-line, in the Ozark foothills. Residents and visitors who need care in the evening often face a long drive. A video visit can handle the everyday problems that don't need an exam room.
Think of us as same-day telemedicine for Tahlequah. When you'd like to see a doctor online today for a non-emergency, an online doctor Tahlequah patients trust is a video call away.
Simply Medicine offers telemedicine in Tahlequah with a flat $49 video visit with an Oklahoma-licensed physician. You can be seen with or without insurance, and there's no membership. We're open 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM every day. To get started, call or text 918-992-2938 or visit simplymedicineok.com.
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.
Sick, but not ER-sick. 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.
Minor injury. 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.
Other $49 visit types include back and spine pain, weight-loss consultations and men's health. If you need an in-person exam, imaging or a specialist, the physician will tell you.
Whether you live in Tahlequah proper or elsewhere in Cherokee County, the video visit is the same: one Oklahoma-licensed physician, $49 flat, and no travel on US-62 and SH-51/SH-82. Searching for an online doctor open now? Every day from 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM, the answer is yes.
Tahlequah was established in 1839 as a capital of the Cherokee Nation. Today it's the capital of both the Cherokee Nation and the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians, and the Cherokee County seat.
If you're wondering whether an online doctor is open now, our hours are 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM, seven days a week. Reach out at 918-992-2938 or simplymedicineok.com. You'll need a phone, tablet or computer with a camera, and you must be physically in Oklahoma during the visit. The physician will talk through your symptoms, review any medications, and recommend next steps.
Telemedicine is not for emergencies. If you have chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of a stroke, severe bleeding, a serious injury or any life-threatening symptom, call 911 or go to the nearest ER. Hospitals with emergency departments that serve the Tahlequah area (Cherokee County) include Northeastern Health System (1400 E Downing St). Use whichever is closest to you.
Teens and adults in Tahlequah and across Oklahoma, by video. Not for sick visits for young children under about age 12.
