Children's Choice Pediatrics offers remote / distance visits to diagnose and treat patients online through Healow. Healow is a secure app that enables you to take control of your health by giving you instant access to your health records and allowing you to manage your important health information.

Telemedicine is a great option if you are away or traveling. It provides easy access to your doctor if you have trouble making it into the doctor’s office due to mobility or transportation issues, business schedule, or illnesses. Plus, it offers total convenience with complete privacy. To learn more about telemedicine and Healow, please visit the Healow App.

​
*Please know that we have a virtual waiting room that holds up to 14 people. If you are not connected to your doctor immediately, please do not sign off, but wait in virtual lobby. We will be with you in the order you entered our waiting room, within 10-15 minutes or less.
*Effective immediately patients will be able to start televisits from their email directly on their smart phones. That means we have taken out the dependency of the patient joining telvisits from the healow app. If the patients do not have the Healow app downloaded, once they get the email reminder for the televisit on their smart phone, they can click on “Join this telemedicine appointment directly” on their smartphone, the visit will be launched from the phones browser. This does require the patients to be web-enabled but doesn’t require the patients to sign-in on their portal.
