Provider Links for Telehealth Visits

Click on the link below for the provider you are scheduled with at the time of your visit. There may be a brief wait, as providers are working in the clinic as well, so they will log in when they are available.

Dr. Langone

Dr. Bottoms

Dr. Fuller

Dr. Lefevre

Tara

Megan

If the provider feels telehealth is not adequate for the visit because of concerns, the visit will be ended, and you will be scheduled with that provider to come in person.

Step by Step Process

Call one of our offices to schedule your appointment.

If the appointment is compatible with telehealth (see examples below), you will be scheduled as a telehealth visit with a specific provider. (You always have the option of coming into the clinic.)

Your insurance will be verified while you are on the day the telehealth visit is scheduled.

At the time of your visit, click on the Telehealth link on our website. Scroll to the link for the providers and click on their name. We are using the site doxy.me, which can be used on mobile browsers or on Firefox or Google Chrome.

You will be entered into the waiting room on the site. Please allow access to your camera and microphone with a parent or guardian present. When your provider is available, they will click on your name in the waiting room to begin the Telehealth visit OR their nurse will first greet you to set up the visit.

What You Need for Telehealth Visits

You will need the following (if not available, that is okay):

Your child
A scale for weights
A thermometer
A blood pressure cuff (for older children & medicine checks)
