  • Telehealth: The Advantages of Telemedicine
The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered dramatic changes throughout everyday life — and in the medical community as well. Not only are providers across the country postponing elective procedures, but many are also encouraging people to avoid in-office appointments to reduce their risk of exposure to this highly contagious coronavirus.
But what do you do if you still need health care? Fortunately, Telehealth can help.
How Telehealth works
Telehealth — or telemedicine — is a healthcare solution that allows you to meet with your doctor virtually instead of going to the office. Our 100% HIPAA-compliant system uses a two-way, high definition video, so we can talk face-to-face as if we’re in the same room together.
With Telehealth, you can also:
  • Submit your medication list, allergies, ID cards, and medical history in advance
  • Chat or share photos describing your symptoms
  • Have prescriptions electronically sent to your pharmacy
  • Securely pay online for your virtual visit
This streamlined approach originally evolved to help expand medical care to men, women, and children living in remote areas. Today, 76% of hospitals use Telehealth technology, and US employers could save as much as $6 billion a year by making telemedicine technology available to their employees. But the advantages of Telehealth go far beyond financial savings.
The benefits of telemedicine
Whether you live close to your doctor or in a rural area, you probably know firsthand that even a routine visit involves wait times of 18 minutes or longer — and that doesn’t even include the time you spend getting there. Telehealth technology eliminates that.
By connecting to your doctor in a virtual setting, you can expect to:
  • Miss less time at work
  • Have fewer disruptions with any child or elder care responsibilities
  • Eliminate the time or travel expenses associated with your office visit
  • Receive quality health care faster
  • Reduce subjecting yourself and others to a contagious illness
At the same time, you also reduce your risk of exposure to contagious illnesses, like the common cold, flu, and COVID-19.
Telemedicine is also available to patients of all ages, including children, older adults, and those in vulnerable health. That makes it an ideal healthcare solution for everyone, especially when someone can no longer leave their home safely but still requires medical attention.
What to expect during a Telehealth appointment
Telemedicine technology has never been easier to use, simply:
  • Download our app to your tablet, computer, or phone
  • Request an appointment through our Telehealth portal
  • Fill out the registration forms included in our calendar invite
  • Follow the link in your calendar invite to open your video-chat to start your appointment
You can also upload photos, if needed, to help us diagnose your symptoms.
For more information on telemedicine or to schedule your virtual visit, contact us by calling or requesting your Telehealth appointment online today.

  • HOW ONE WOMAN FOUND HEALING FOR HER DEPRESSION
Jane G. is attractive, creative, intelligent, and suffers from depression. “My initial bout with depression followed the birth of my first child when I was 22,” she says. It was the first of many struggles Jane would experience throughout her life.
Change and challenge
After managing her first round of depression without any medication, Jane had two more babies over the next three years and found herself in the depths of depression once again. Her emotional and mental health was in steady decline, and as she neared age 30, her condition became serious. “I was dealing with a number of changes in my life and I had a complete breakdown,” Jane says. After 12 years of marriage, she was divorcing.
Within a year of ending the failed marriage, she quickly married again. A risky pregnancy followed. Then, she moved from Nevada to another state. “I just had no zest for life and no interest in making friends,” Jane says. “I was feeling very withdrawn, and could only work sporadically. I was also dealing with severe anorexia as well.” She sought professional help. Her doctor prescribed medication, and it did help her cope with her challenges—for a while.

  • HOW ONE WOMAN FOUND HEALING FOR HER DEPRESSION
For Sharon, depression is not an illness; it’s a lifetime companion and long-fought struggle. She doesn’t recall not being depressed and doesn’t remember ever feeling true happiness. Therefore, it was her comfort zone to be depressed and stay depressed until she reached a point where life is not interesting for her anymore and she wants to be dead. Her family got used to knowing her as depressed and having a very low tolerance for everything.
Deep inside, Sharon hated this. She wanted to be around her family more, she wanted to be a fun part of their lives, but could not simply get over her depression and join them. The easy solution was to leave her out. Sharon did her homework and started seeking help early on. She tried every medication prescribed to her by her doctors, but nothing seemed to work for long enough. She constantly felt like a walking zombie on her medications. She hated taking them but felt she had no other choice.

  • ONE MORE REASON TO BE THANKFUL TO HIM
We all have a distinct memory of Robin Williams. In his long-spanning career, he touched lives, young and old. Had he died of cancer, a heart attack or Parkinson’s disease with which he had recently been diagnosed, it would still have been tragic. However, he died in a personal and more painful way. We’re not used to talking about this disease. This disease doesn’t manifest itself in the usual way. His hair wasn’t falling out. He hadn’t lost weight. There were no signs – as far as the general public was concerned. Or, were there?
Robin Williams had spoken very openly about his issues.We knew he suffered from severe depression as well as drug and alcohol addiction. He joked about it, but we didn’t see the seriousness. All we got was a glimpse of the zany person who kept us entertained. When someone commits suicide, it is natural to feel some form of responsibility. Even though most of us didn’t know Mr. Williams personally, he was part of our lives. So why didn’t we see it? Why did he do it?
