We bring the doctor to you.
During your visit, our Board-Certified providers will connect with you via secure video. In addition, our onsite nurse will monitor your vitals and act as "the doctor's hands" to make it seem as though the doctor is in the room with you.
We understand trying anything new can be scary.
Boasting a 98% full-treatment efficacy rate, we are confident you will receive the same great care as an in-person visit at Satellite Med.
You won't pay for an extra visit if we can't treat you onsite.
We offer a premium referral service to be seen immediately at Satellite Med for no additional charge.
Our prices are the same as an in-person visit.
We accept all major insurance carriers except Medicare and Medicaid. Your copay is the same as if you were seeing the provider in-person.
