Your answers will be submitted to a provider for review prior to your visit.
  3. 3. Video Visit & Provider Evaluation
    A provider will give you a diagnosis and treatment plan. If we can't treat you virtually, we'll help find the best in-person care options for you.
  4. 4. Prescription and Discharge Instructions
