Telemedicine, Virtual Primary Care
Your Primary Care Provider, Online
Your relationship with your primary care provider shouldn’t be limited by geography. Kare Center’s Virtual Primary Care gives you full access to comprehensive primary care services, from annual wellness reviews to chronic disease management, without leaving home.
Virtual visits are ideal for follow-ups, medication refills, lab result reviews, referrals, and managing ongoing conditions. You get the same attentive, personalized care you’d expect in the office, just through your screen.

Primary Care at a Distance
What works well remotely
Routine follow up of a stable condition, medication reviews and refills, discussing test results, mental health appointments, lifestyle and weight conversations, and many minor problems can all be handled by video without losing anything useful.
What still needs a room
Physical examinations, bloodwork, vaccinations, imaging, procedures and anything that needs listening to your heart or lungs need an in person visit. A good virtual relationship mixes both rather than replacing one with the other.
Home readings make video visits better
- A home blood pressure cuff, used correctly, adds more than anything else
- A digital scale, weighed the same way each time
- A blood glucose meter if you have diabetes
- A thermometer
- A pulse oximeter if your provider has recommended one
Bring the readings to the visit rather than trying to remember them, and include the ones you did not like.
Continuity matters
Seeing the same provider over time is worth more than the format of any single visit. Ask to be booked with the provider who knows your history, even if the wait is a few days longer.
Emergencies
Chest pain, severe shortness of breath, weakness on one side, difficulty speaking or heavy bleeding need 911, not a video appointment.
