Telehealth Services
What is Telehealth Service?
A telehealth service uses technology to provide healthcare remotely, allowing patients to connect with doctors via video calls, phone calls, or secure messaging instead of visiting in person. From consultations and follow-ups to mental health therapy and chronic condition monitoring, telehealth covers a wide range of care. With telehealth care, you get timely treatment from a virtual doctor, all without the need to travel.
Why is Telehealth Important?
Telehealth makes healthcare more accessible and efficient. Whether you have a busy schedule, limited mobility, or live far from
medical facilities, telehealth helps you get the care you need when you need it.
For Manhattan residents, where time is valuable and commuting is a hassle, telehealth or televisit provides a convenient way to fit healthcare into a fast-paced lifestyle. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition or need urgent care, telehealth ensures continuous support from the comfort of your own home.
Why Would You Need Telehealth Services?
Telehealth services are perfect for many reasons, including:
Managing Chronic
Conditions
Keep track of conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or other long-term health issues with routine online check-ins.
Mental Health
Support
Get telehealth therapy for anxiety, depression, or stress from the privacy and comfort of your home.
Follow-up
Appointments
Stay updated on your
recovery progress or discuss
lab results with a quick online consultation.
Urgent
Concerns
For non-life-threatening issues, such as a skin rash or mild infection, an online doctor visit can quickly address your needs.
Telehealth services offer a practical way to manage your health, especially when in-person
visits aren’t possible or convenient.
What is a Telehealth Appointment?
A telehealth appointment is a scheduled visit with your healthcare provider, conducted virtually. Your provider will review your symptoms, discuss a treatment plan, or monitor a chronic condition. These appointments are secure and private, providing high-quality care from anywhere. Whether you’re in your home or on the go, you can rely on telehealth for your healthcare needs.
What Happens
in a Telehealth Session?
In a telehealth session, you’ll connect with your healthcare provider via secure video or audio call. Your provider will ask about your symptoms, review your medical history, and may guide you through simple self-check methods (e.g., pressing on your stomach if you have abdominal pain). If needed, they can send prescriptions to your pharmacy or refer you for further tests. These virtual doctor visits are designed to make you feel just as supported and cared for as an in-person visit.
Can Telehealth Diagnose?
Yes, telehealth can diagnose a variety of common conditions, including
the flu, allergies, migraines, and urinary tract infections. Telehealth providers also diagnose mental health issues and provide therapy for treatment. However, conditions requiring physical exams or diagnostic tests, like X-rays, may still need an in-person visit. Our telehealth service in Manhattan Primary Care is equipped to handle initial diagnoses and will refer you to in-person care if needed.
