At Internal Medicine Associates of Frisco, we understand that visiting the doctor's office can be difficult for some patients, whether it be due to transportation issues, mobility limitations, or simply a busy schedule. That's why we're excited to offer our patients the option of televisit appointments.

A televisit appointment is a virtual visit with one of our healthcare providers, conducted over a secure video conferencing platform. This means that you can receive medical care from the comfort of your own home, without the need to travel to our office.

Our televisit appointments are just like in-person visits, with the added convenience of being able to have a visit with your provider from anywhere with internet access.

To schedule a televisit appointment, simply call our office and we will be happy to assist you. If you have any questions about televisit appointments, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to help you receive the care you need, when and where you need it.

We look forward to connecting with you virtually and helping you stay on top of your health.
