Virtual Visits from the Comfort of Home

Telemedicine is a revolutionary approach to healthcare delivery that leverages technology to provide virtual consultations and treatment options.

How Telemedicine Works at Apicha
- Scheduling Appointments: Patients can schedule telemedicine appointments through our website or by calling our office. Our staff will guide you through the process and help you get set up for your virtual visit.
- Accessing Technology: To participate in a telemedicine appointment, patients need a device with a camera and microphone, such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer, as well as a stable internet connection. Apicha utilizes secure and easy-to-use virtual meeting platforms to facilitate these appointments.
- Virtual Consultation: At the scheduled appointment time, patients will receive a link to join the virtual consultation with their Apicha healthcare provider. The provider will conduct the appointment just like an in-person visit, discussing symptoms, answering questions, and providing guidance on treatment and care.
