If all I need is a prescription or want a quick diagnosis, I'd much rather use video chat to see a doctor than go to an urgent care clinic. Plus, it's typically cheaper!

Yes, as long as my insurance still applied.

In this communications age, with atmospheric pollution driven by constant useless travel back and worth, staying at home and using Telemedicine just makes sense.

Sam Ackerman

I would try it. But I bet their most common answer will be to come in and see a doctor.

Pam Falcioni

Not only would this save me money, but being able to avoid the germ-filled waiting room would be a huge benefit.

Carol Fulkerson

I agree with the pro of avoiding the lobby that's a petri dish.

I'd much rather see a doctor in person. It feels more secure, more personal, and more private.

Many times we need hands on exam for diagnosis. Telemed might be fine for followup with Dr. with back and forth discussion about symptoms, meds, side effects since exam.

I don’t support the idea of a community living within my community that doesn’t have to abide by the laws and litters carelessly. Along with supporting a community that isn’t contributing to ours in any positive manner, using up costly resources.

If I had any say in the matter at all, it would be.... If a person doesn't want to put any effort into improving there life, I don't want a single cent of this communities tax dollars going to help them. Its an absolute waste! Those people just wanna do drugs and avoid any of life's responsibilities
