Remote Visits

What are remote visits?

Remote visits are a key part of telemedicine, which allows you to stay in contact with your physician without seeing them in person. This means you can attend a visit from anywhere, including your home, workplace, or even on vacation. 

There are many reasons to consider booking a remote visit instead of an office visit at Greenwood Village Family Medicine. While you can’t undergo certain medical tests or treatments from afar, you can use remote visits to follow up on treatment or test results, manage your medications, or receive medical advice. 

How do I access a remote visit?

Greenwood Village Family Medicine makes remote visits as accessible as possible with three different options for communication:

Email

You can communicate with your provider from anywhere over email, with private, detailed messages delivered in an instant. Your provider replies promptly with all the information you need, including any relevant test results. 

Video calls

If you have the means, you can attend a remote visit with a video call using Skype® or a comparable service.

Texting 

Much of our communications with patients occurs via texting. This is for the convenience of the patient and can often resolve an issue simply on your own time schedule. 

Phone calls

When the video aspect isn’t necessary or isn’t practical, a phone call appointment will suffice. You can use your regular phone service to talk to Dr. Donch wherever you are. 

What are the benefits of remote visits?
