  • Knee pain? Back pain? Respiratory infection?

    The Emergency Room is not the place for conditions like this. The ER should be reserved for conditions requiring the highest level of care, for example: chest pain, abdominal pain, major burn or injuries, and shortness of breath. 

     

    Luckily in today's world there are a lot of other options if you need care that is not life-threatening.

  • VIRTUAL VISITS

  • DISPATCH HEALTH

  • What is a virtual visit? It may be a term you’re hearing more often. That’s because the use of virtual visits, also known as telehealth, has expanded recently, offering people more ways to connect with a health care provider from home or work. During a virtual visit, you use your smartphone, tablet or computer, to talk with a provider. You can get treatment options and even prescriptions for medications, if needed.
