TeleMedicine

Winding Cross Urgent Care is now offering telemedicine visits.

Please use the online scheduler or call the office at 240-379-7776 to schedule a telemedicine visit. If there are any questions, please call the office to see if a telemedicine visit is right for you.

During a telemedicine visit, you'll have a real time audio/video visit with one of our doctors or physician assistants. In most cases, the provider will be able to make a diagnosis and prescribe treatment. If a prescription is needed, it can be sent electronically to the pharmacy of your choice. In some cases, the provider will recommend an in office visit or refer you to the emergency room for treatment (if you have serious or life threatening symptoms). These visits are usually covered by your health insurance. The usual copays and deductibles will apply. Please see link to our printable information sheet.

For a telemedicine visit, you'll need to have internet access and use a smart phone or computer with webcam and microphone. It is very easy to use and is web browser based. Once the appointment is made, the provider or staff will send a cell phone text link or email link (for those that wish to use a PC) to start the visit. For those that use Apple iPhone products, please make sure that Safari is granted camera and microphone access. For additional help, please see this informational link. And as always, feel free to call the office.
