Telemedicine

Telemedicine

You can now receive the same great care from Hometown Health Centers from the comfort of your home, or wherever you are! Our telehealth service offers our established patients an easy way to visit with their provider using a computer, smartphone, or tablet. This service is available for many primary care, medical follow up, and behavioral health appointments. However, telehealth may not be appropriate for every type of appointment and some visits are excluded. 

To request a telehealth appointment with your provider, please contact our call center at (518) 370-1441. Telehealth visits use video and audio which allows for the same kind of face-to-face conversation that would normally happen during an in-person visit. 

Please call 518-370-1440 (Schenectady) or 518-627-2110 (Amsterdam) to schedule a tele-visit with your doctor. This is available for all current patients.
