Telemedicine


 

NOVA Pediatrics is excited to offer telemedicine visits during our 8am-4pm office hours for our existing patients.  New patients are required initially to be seen in our office.

Telemedicine visits will allow your child to be seen and assessed in real time at home using your desktop/laptop or smartphone. Telemedicine visits are a convenient and effective way to see your healthcare provider, are HIPAA compliant, and minimizes the risk of exposure to illness.

Telemedicine visits are covered by most insurance companies.  Please call our office to verify if your insurance will cover the telemedicine visit.
