What to Expect During a Visit
If you or your child needs care for a non-emergency condition, our virtual urgent care service offers a video visit with one of our care providers at a time that works with your schedule. The visit takes place over a secure line, and your privacy is assured.
For a child’s visit, the parent or legal guardian must schedule the visit on behalf of the child. Our care providers can only treat your child if the parent or legal guardian is present during the visit.
Our care providers are licensed to practice medicine in Florida and Georgia. You must be physically located within one of those states at the time of treatment.
With virtual urgent care, you or your child can do the following:
receive an examination, diagnosis, and treatment from our office.

For plans we accept, we collect your out-of-pocket responsibility for an office visit at the time of check-in and bill your insurance for the remaining balance. If your insurance doesn’t cover the balance in full, you are billed for any remaining balance.
