Telehealth
What is Telehealth?
Telehealth, or a “virtual visit,” is a consultation with one of our physicians via video conferencing.
Virtual visits are not for all conditions. We offer telehealth at the discretion of your Pediatrician in certain cases, as below:
- Mental Health Checks/Med Checks (ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Depression)
- College-Aged student away at school ( in the state of Virginia) in need of recheck of chronic stable condition
Before Your Appointment
- Have current medications available for viewing during the visit
- Write down any questions you have
Different Types of Telehealth Appointments
We also provide telehealth appointments for behavioral and mental health concerns – for both initial evaluations and follow up care as appropriate.
It is also possible that after video conferencing, we may ask you to bring your child in for an in person sick visit if we need to perform a physical exam that reaches beyond the abilities of video conferencing.
Appointments for telehealth visits can be made through our front desk or the portal. As of April 2021, many insurers no longer cover telehealth appointments. Please contact your insurer to confirm coverage prior to booking an appointment.
