Telehealth Q & A

 

WE ACCEPT MOST MAJOR INSURANCE PLANS INCLUDING MEDICARE

What is telehealth?

Telehealth is an innovative medical service that allows you and your provider at Nova Physician Wellness Center to connect remotely by using a HIPAA-compliant video-conferencing software. 

This technology utilizes your home computer, smartphone, or tablet, thereby reducing your need to come into an office setting physically.

The software that Nova Physician Wellness Center is safe and secure, ensuring that your health information remains confidential. It is also intuitive and easy to use, allowing it to be accessible by all patients.

What services are available through telehealth?

The team of world-class physicians at Nova Physician Wellness Center offers all of its core services to patients through telehealth. You can receive the same exceptional standard of care for the following needs:

  • Nutritional counseling
  • Weight loss counseling
  • Medical weight loss
  • Obesity treatment
  • Pediatric weight loss
  • Exercise plans
  • Wellness visits
  • Weight maintenance

If you've already had your appointment in the office, telehealth is an easy way for you and your provider to continue your prescribed course of treatment, or make adjustments as needed.

What should I expect from my telehealth appointment?

Your telehealth appointment with Nova Physician Wellness Center will occur in much the same way a regular appointment would. The only difference between using telehealth for your medical needs compared with in-office care is that you and your provider will meet remotely. For many, this difference is an added benefit.

During your first appointment, your provider will help you get accustomed to the software. Your visit will then continue as it would in-office.

Your provider will ask specific questions about your health since your last visit and outline practical steps you can take to help you achieve your goals. Your doctor can also send prescriptions for you electronically during your telehealth appointment.

Is telehealth effective?

Telehealth is as effective as an in-office visit would be. You can follow up with your provider about all of your health concerns, and they will be able to assess you and your symptoms effectively using the video software.

If you want convenient, expert care without going into the doctor's office, call Nova Physician Wellness Center or book your visit online today.
