Telemedicine
With demands from your job, family, and friends, time is a limited commodity that may prevent you from seeking medical help when you need it.

To learn more about telemedicine, call PharmXhealthOne, or book online today.
What is telemedicine?
Telemedicine allows the team at PharmXhealthOne to evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients without the need for an in-person office visit. During your appointment, you communicate with your provider through a secure telecommunication system designed for health care providers.
The experienced medical professionals at PharmXhealthOne understand your time is limited, but they don’t want you to skip getting the medical care you need because you can’t make it to the office. Telemedicine allows you to consult with your provider from your home or office at a time that’s convenient for you.
Who can participate in telemedicine?
PharmXhealthOne provides telemedicine appointments for a wide range of medical concerns. You may still need a follow-up visit to the office if you have any test results you need to go over with your provider, but you can use telemedicine appointments for an initial doctor visit.
The practice specializes in many chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, that often require frequent follow-up appointments to monitor health and treatment. In addition to office visits, the team offers one-on-one diabetic education classes through telemedicine to help manage your chronic condition and monitor your treatment.
PharmXhealthOne also offers consultations with their highly qualified team of physicians, nurses, nutritionists, and health and fitness instructors. With a diverse team of experts, your telemedicine appointments can benefit all aspects of your health.
Nutrition therapy sessions with the team at PharmXhealthOne via telemedicine are also a convenient way to improve your everyday health habits.
What are the benefits of telemedicine?
Telemedicine with the team at PharmXhealthOne offers many benefits to you. Some of the most common include:
-
You receive experienced and convenient medical care
-
You don’t need to miss work
-
No commuting, so you save time and money
-
Reduced risk of exposure to contagious illnesses you may encounter at the office, during a pandemic
Your telemedicine appointment also gives you more privacy by having the appointment in the comfort of your own home or a place of your choosing.
What can I expect during my telemedicine consultation?
You can expect the same level of care and attention from the team at PharmXhealthOne during your telemedicine consultation as you would during an office visit. Your provider begins by reviewing your symptoms and medical history.
You may be asked to provide specific health information to help your provider during your assessment, such as pictures of any rashes or injuries, a blood pressure reading if you have an at-home kit, and your most recent height and weight measurements.
If you have a nutrition therapy appointment, your provider at PharmXhealthOne might discuss any changes you’ve made to your diet and the health goals you’d like to achieve. Based on the information gathered during your discussion, your provider gives a diagnosis and offers a personalized treatment plan.
Telemedicine makes getting to your doctor a lot easier. To learn more about telemedicine at PharmXhealthOne, call the office or schedule an appointment online today.
