This
service, for established patients, is available to obtain the
individualized medical advice you need without having to come into the
office. Obviously this only works for information sharing, not for
physical exams!
Access is available through registration on
this site. After registering the office will confirm that you are an
established patient and then activate your Online Consultation
privileges. This process may take up to 2 business days. You will
receive an email confirmation when your registration is "active." You
will also be presented with a "Terms of Service" agreement which
explains your responsibilities and my responsibilities regarding online
communication. Once you have accepted this agreement, you will have
access to the form to request personalized medical advice online. Just
log in and follow the directions.
There is a set fee ($25)for
this service which will be charged to your credit card if I determine
that your question can be adequately addressed on line and provide a
response. If I feel that the topic can NOT be adequately addressed in
this manner, you will receive a reply to that effect, and your credit
card will NOT be charged.
Secure E-mail Messaging
This
service is for established patients. If you would be new to the
practice, we ask that you call and speak to a staff member, as there is
specific information that we must get from you to meet your needs.
Secure
messaging works a lot like email and can be used to request
appointments, request prescription refills (though if you receive
medications from a local pharmacy, a call there to initiate the process
is faster), or to ask a general question of my office staff or nurse.
Messages are checked just once daily when we are in the office, and must not be used for urgent matters.
The
difference from email is that this is secure and encrypted. This means
that the actual message doesn't "live" in your email file to be
discovered by your family or employer. You access it directly from the
website, and can do so from any computer, even when you are away from
home.
You must register and log in to use this service. After
registering the office will confirm that you are an established patient
and then activate your secure email privileges. This process may take
up to 2 business days. You will receive an email confirmation when your
registration is "active." Please call Medem if you are having any
technical difficulties at 1-877-926-3336. (Tell them I sent you!)
