What telehealth means for primary care in Rochester

Finding reliable primary care in Rochester shouldn't feel like a battle against broken systems. Traditional healthcare often leaves you waiting weeks for appointments, rushing through visits, and struggling to reach your doctor when questions arise. Our doctors change this by offering flat-rate visits that work even without insurance, plus unlimited messaging with your care team. You can build relationships with physicians who remember your health history and listen during appointments. Our platform follows HIPAA rules and uses bank-level security to protect your information.

Getting started with telehealth through our doctors is simple. Schedule your visit online at a time that works for you. During the appointment, you connect with your assigned physician through our app for a face-to-face consultation. After your visit, you can message your care team anytime with follow-up questions or concerns. This approach helps you feel heard and supported between appointments, creating the ongoing relationship that leads to better health outcomes. No more waiting days for responses when you need guidance about your care.
