Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if the doctor determines I need an in-person physical exam?

Telehealth is an excellent screening and management tool, but it has limits. If your provider evaluates you virtually and determines that your symptoms require a physical examination, lab work, or diagnostic imaging, they will help you schedule a prompt follow-up visit at the physical clinic office in Dallas.

Is the quality of care the same as an in-person doctor's visit?

For appropriate medical conditions, the quality of care is identical. Telehealth appointments utilize the exact same board-certified physicians and licensed medical providers who see patients in the physical clinic. The providers follow the same clinical guidelines, evidence-based practices, and diagnostic standards as they would in an exam room.

How long do virtual primary care appointments typically last?

A standard telehealth appointment usually takes between 15 to 30 minutes, which is roughly the same duration as a traditional face-to-face office visit. The exact length depends on the complexity of your medical concerns, the number of symptoms you need to discuss, and whether you are reviewing detailed lab results or adjusting a chronic care management plan.
