What Our Patients Say
"My provider was very detailed, not only in assessing my condition, but also with an explanation of how to use the medication ordered. She is also available for follow-up, if needed. This was the best video appointment by far I have ever had—possibly because her job is to only do video appointments."
"Ta-Ya Lee, C.R.N.P., was great. I appreciate her care and attention. I was very happy with being able to set this up quickly. I called at 8:40; talked with Ta-Ya [at] 9:10; had eye drops by 10:30. Thanks!"
"I am grateful to have access to the virtual care team and that they work so closely with my pediatric office. My son was able to get quick attention and relief for a very bad case of pinkeye late on a Friday afternoon when no more in person appointments were available. The team was great and the provider's care could be felt even through a screen."
