Telemedicine

At Palm Medical Centers, we offer established patients these online, real-time, video visits with providers from all of our 20 locations in Central and South Florida.

To schedule your telemedicine appointment, call your provider’s clinic directly or use our online patient portal to request one of these convenient virtual visits.

What Can Be Treated in a Virtual Visit

Telemedicine can be used to address:

  • A new health concern
  • follow-up care;
  • physical, mental, or other issues

To identify whether a sudden injury or condition requires medical attention.

When you visit your doctor or other healthcare provider using telemedicine, your provider will be able to see you, discuss your concerns or symptoms, and assess your condition. In some cases, further testing may be necessary – but for many common problems, medication or other treatment can be ordered based on that virtual doctor visit.

What to Expect

As long as you have access to an internet-connected device with a camera, you can enjoy the convenience of a telehealth consult with your Palm Medical Centers primary care provider.
