How do I see a doctor virtually?

You can do this in a virtual visit with a doctor! This is a type of telemedicine, also known as telecare or telehealth. With this kind of healthcare, you or anyone else in your family can see a doctor virtually via a videoconference, or you can speak with one over the phone. For a virtual visit, all you’ll need is a decent internet connection and a computer or smartphone with a camera and/or microphone.

A typical virtual visit goes something like this:

  • You’ll speak with a doctor about your symptoms and general health
  • If necessary, the doctor will perform a visual evaluation or, if required, ask you to go in for an in-person examination
  • The doctor will provide a diagnosis or, if necessary, ask you to come in for in-person testing
  • The doctor will then provide a recommendation for treatment or, if necessary, ask you to come to the clinic for treatment

A recommendation for treatment may be something like a prescription for medicine.

Can you get a prescription through telemedicine?

You definitely can, yes. If the doctor decides you need a prescription medication as a part of treatment, like a prescription antibiotic to treat strep throat, he or she can forward the prescription to your nearest pharmacy for pickup. It may be possible to have a prescription refilled too, like one for a chronic condition such as arthritis. You’re welcome to contact us at Allegis Health Care to learn more about this service with us.
