Why Online Office Visits?

With the advent of the retail health clinics, or pharmacy clinics as they are commonly known and the propagation of stand alone urgent care centers, Dr. Criner made the decision to make online office visits available to his patients in an effort to keep medical records cohesive and contiguous. 



Your Next Doctor's Visit Could Be This Simple!

It is of primary importance for the patients' healthcare narrative to not suffer the gaps in information that are often created by visits to different service providers, such as pharmacy clinics or urgent care centers.  For some, the risks can outweigh the benefits.  To that end, Dr. Criner elected to make himself available for extended hours to ensure that his patients receive the best care possible. 

Not all issues are appropriate for the online office visit and patients should familiarize themselves with the guidelines presented on the website.  Emergencies should continue to be addressed by proceeding to the nearest emergency hospital facility.

In addition to protecting the healthcare narrative, patients may benefit from less time lost from work, simply alleviate the need to come into the office for a minor illness when they are not feeling well or remain connected to their primary care doctor when traveling for work or vacation. 

Also, for patients who have suffered a loss in health insurance benefits, the online office visit presents an affordable option for the treatment of common, minor ailments while ensuring quality care.
