Telehealth makes it possible to connect with a healthcare provider remotely using a phone, tablet, or computer. Bay Area Pharmacy offers access to telehealth appointments for eligible patients seeking non-emergency healthcare services without always needing to visit a healthcare facility in person.
Whether you’re at home, at work, or away from your usual location, telehealth can provide a convenient way to connect with your healthcare provider when an in-person visit is not necessary.
Healthcare Through a Phone, Tablet, or Computer
A telehealth appointment allows you to communicate with a healthcare provider remotely through a telephone or interactive video connection.
Depending on the service and your healthcare needs, a provider can speak with you, discuss your concerns, provide appropriate guidance, and determine whether additional in-person care is necessary.
Telehealth can be a convenient option when traveling to a healthcare facility is difficult or when your healthcare needs can appropriately be addressed remotely.
