Face to Face

Knowing which type of appointment to schedule for medical requirements can be challenging with the advent of virtual or non-face-to-face appointments.

Consultations by phone, email, or video are ideal for problems that don’t require a physical examination. They generally take less time, allow for better access, are more convenient for patients, and may result in time and money savings.

A face-to-face consultation is necessary in the following situations, though:

1. You have had an accident and need a physical examination of any type and you have an injury or wound.
2. Speaking with your doctor in person makes you feel more at ease
3. You require a procedure like a joint injection or minor surgery.
