Telemedicine

At Palm Primary Care, we provide established patients with online, real-time video visits with providers from all our multiple locations.

To schedule your telemedicine appointment, contact your provider's clinic directly or use our online patient portal to request one of these convenient virtual visits.

Conditions Treated in a Virtual Visit

Telemedicine can be used to address:

  • New physical, mental, or general health concerns.
  • Follow-up care.
  • Recurring physical, mental, or general health other issues.
  • Assessing the need for medical attention in the case of sudden injury or condition.

During a telemedicine visit with your doctor or healthcare provider, they will be able to see you, discuss your concerns or symptoms, and evaluate your condition. In some instances, further testing may be required. However, for many common problems, medication or other treatment can be prescribed based on the virtual doctor visit.

  • Remaining safe and comfortable at home.

What to Expect from a Telemedicine Appointment

If you have access to an internet-connected device with a camera, you can conveniently have a telemedicine consultation with your primary care provider.

After scheduling a telemedicine appointment with your provider, you will receive a link via email or text message, based on your preference. When it is time for your appointment, all you need to do is click on the link. It will take you to the virtual "waiting room" screen where the visit will take place.
