FREEMAN FAMILY MEDICINE NOW OFFERS TELEMEDICINE VISITS.


WHAT IS TELEMEDICINE?

Telemedicine is a newer technology that allows you to see a provider via video on your phone, tablet, or computer, without having to go to the doctor's office.

 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF TELEMEDICINE?

No commuting to the clinic.

Less time away from work or school.

Limited wait times.

You can see us from anywhere.

 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF TELEMEDICINE OVER LEAVING A MESSAGE WITH A NURSE?

With telemedicine, you get to speak in real-time to your provider over video.  They can see you and ask you specific questions related to your current problem.  This cuts out back and forth phone calls and leads to a more accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

 

WHAT KINDS OF PROBLEMS CAN BE ADDRESSED USING TELEMEDICINE?

For now, telemedicine at Freeman Family Medicine can be used to address acute issues, including, but not limited to the following:

  • Acid reflux

  • Allergies

  • Arthritis

  • Back pain
