Telemedicine
Communities without available psychiatric care now have access to the expertise of our psychiatrists in the Bay Area through the use of
videoconferencing equipment. High-definition cameras and flat-panel screens allow patients to comfortably meet with their psychiatrist
over a secure video connection, ensuring that patient confidentiality is protected.
Regularly scheduled 20 to 30 minute follow-up visits insure the best response with the least problems on medication.
For patients in more rural areas, it is a unique opportunity to establish a relationship with a psychiatrist who can manage their medication
and assess the need for ongoing psychotherapy.
Almost all telemedicine sessions are covered by insurance.
