Telemedicine

Telemedicine.

Telemedicine is the health care practice of treating patients remotely when the provider and patient are not physically present with each other using telecommunications technology.

Telemedicine supports traditional in-person care. It doesn’t replace it. It provides appointment flexibility for follow-up visits, renewal of prescriptions, check-ups, and check-ins when necessary.

Benefits of Telemedicine.

Safe & secure. You avoid the risk of exposure and the chance of spreading your illness to someone else when you stay at home. 

Convenient & easy to use. Accessing and starting your appointment is as easy as clicking on a link. Our staff is available to guide you through the entire process.

Improves quality of care. It allows you to see your doctor as often as you need to seamlessly. 

Cost-efficient. It saves money on parking and gas. 

Time-Saving. There’s no wasted time commuting to and from the doctor’s office or time spent standing by in the waiting room. And you don’t have to use up precious paid time off from work.

Access to specialists. You deserve the best specialists, not the closest ones. Now, you can leverage the expertise of specialists who are not nearby. 

Increases access to care. Barriers like access to reliable transportation or scheduling constraints are no longer an issue. 

Eliminates child or eldercare issues. No need to find alternative care for the loved ones you are responsible for during trips to the doctor. 

At Riverside Medical Clinic, we are whole-heartedly committed to the care and safety of our patients and that will never change, not today, not tomorrow, not via Telemedicine.
