For many women, the simple hassle of battling traffic, finding parking, and coming into an office is the biggest barrier to accessing healthcare. Telemedicine is a unique and secure healthcare platform designed exclusively for women on the go and these remote appointments make accessing care easier and less time consuming. Whether from home, at work or on travel, our Bloom OB/GYN providers are available to provide a variety of services by video appointment.
What services are available over Telemedicine?
Most any visit that does not require a physical examination, blood work, an ultrasound or an in-office procedure can happen by video appointment.
During your video appointment, your provider might determine that an in-person visit is needed at a later date.
Easily join a Telemedicine video appointment in 3 steps:
- Call our office to schedule an appointment at (202) 449-9570.
- Watch for an email with instructions to set up the Telemedicine software on your device and a link to launch the video appointment.
- Join the appointment and wait for your doctor to start the visit.
