Greater Family Health is always ensuring that our patients are receiving the health care they need, including during the COVID-19 pandemic. We are pleased to announce that Greater Family Health is launching Virtual Visits on April 8th, 2020!
You might have heard of telehealth or telemedicine appointments. Well, Virtual Visits are just like that – during a Virtual Visit, you will have your appointment with your Greater Family Health provider over a video chat system while you remain at home.
Greater Family Health has provided Virtual Visits for psychiatry patients for years. Now, Greater Family Health is expanding Virtual Visits to our medical and general behavioral health patients as well!
Please note, if you are a new patient, you cannot be seen by a Greater Family Health practitioner through a Virtual Visit.
Call 844-599-3700 to schedule your appointment today!
