Yes.  While Initial visits will almost always be in-person, we utilize telemedicine for many follow-ups visits.  This allows maximum schedule flexibility for both patients and physicians so that connections can be ongoing and scheduled on relatively short notice.  (You won’t be put off for a month waiting for a visit with your physicians).  We want your connection with your physicians to be as fluid and easy as possible.
