A: Please call our Scheduling Department to determine if you are eligible to use the telemedicine option.

Q: What kind of device do I need to participate in a Telemedicine appointment?
A: The concept behind Telemedicine is for your doctor to see you and your injury, and discuss treatment options. You must use a device that can make phone calls, has video capabilities, a microphone and audio. Your mobile phone, either iOS or Android, your computer or iPad are all acceptable methods.
