These days, people can connect with friends online or join a virtual business meeting with just a click of a button. So, why not make your next doctor’s appointment just as easy?

With Wellstar Virtual Care, you can visit your Wellstar physician, remotely – from the comfort and convenience of home. All you need is a smartphone, computer or tablet to stay connected with your provider.

From getting wellness exams to managing chronic conditions, Wellstar Virtual Care gives you the flexibility to find safe, expert care anywhere.

Even if you don’t consider yourself technologically-savvy, virtual visits are easy to do and our staff will walk you through the process.

- Dr. Amber Driskell

Wellstar Internal Medicine Physician

Stay connected with your health

Whether you are an established patient or looking for a new provider, virtual visits are a convenient way to get care on your schedule.

We offer phone and video appointments with both primary care providers and specialty medicine experts. That means you can keep in touch with your physicians and get the latest information about your health, even if you can’t make it into the doctor’s office.

If you have a MyChart account, all of your health information will also be made available to you and stored online securely after the virtual appointment.

Easy access for everyone

You don’t have to be a computer whiz to reap the benefits of virtual healthcare. Getting started is easier than you think – and we’re always here to help.

“Even if you don’t consider yourself technologically-savvy, virtual visits are easy to do and our staff will walk you through the process,” said Dr. Amber Driskell, internal medicine physician with Wellstar Medical Group.

Scheduling a virtual visit just takes moments. To book a virtual appointment, either:

  • Call a physician’s office and request a virtual visit by video or phone call.
  • Click 'Book Now' at the top of any page of our website and follow the steps provided.
  • Established patients may set up an appointment via MyChart.

Safe, convenient care amid COVID-19

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Wellstar is ensuring Georgians have access to healthcare by offering virtual doctor appointments.

Because these socially-distanced visits are conducted over the phone or video chat, online care is completely safe and secure. This can be especially critical for patients whose immune systems may be weak or those too sick to leave their homes.

However, while safety is a major benefit, many people find that virtual care simply fits their lifestyle. Patients check off appointments after taking their child to school, between errands or even on their lunch breaks.

Next time you need world-class healthcare, know Wellstar Virtual Care is only a click or call away.

For more information, contact your physician’s office directly. To schedule a virtual visit online, click ‘Book Now’ at the top of the page.
