TeleHealth Starting Aug 2015, we are introducing “Telehealth”-also considered to be Urgent care services on phone Telehealth is a tool where patients can access the doctor for telephone services and obtain care without the need to come in for an actual office visit. It saves you time and is convenient. Prescriptions can be ordered over the phone if necessary. This does not include controlled substances. Usually, this is for acute problems. It is a 5-10 min phone visit. If you don’t have insurance, this is ideal in order to try to avoid costly emergency room visits. If you have plans with high deductible, this would be cost effective. If you have general questions or concerns, this phone visit could give you some guidance. Cost of telephone consultation is $50/. No hidden fees. You pay with a credit card over the phone. This can be used by anyone in California, regardless of location. Please call Dr. Satvinder Sachdeva. Phone (209) 839-9020 and ask for “Telehealth appointment”. You can use this service any day Monday through Fri 8 to 5 pm. |
