Request a Telemedicine Appointment

Virtual care is available when the clinician is appropriately licensed for the patient’s physical location and the medical concern can be evaluated safely by video or telephone. Some symptoms require an in-person examination, testing, urgent care, or an emergency department.

What Can a Telemedicine Doctor Treat in Los Angeles?

A virtual appointment may be suitable for the following services after an individualized assessment. The physician determines whether telemedicine provides enough information to make a safe diagnosis or treatment plan.

Can a Telemedicine Doctor Prescribe Medications?

Yes, when clinically appropriate. Following a proper medical evaluation, a licensed physician may send an electronic prescription to a patient’s chosen pharmacy. Prescribing is based on medical necessity, available history, potential risks, applicable laws, and whether a virtual examination is sufficient. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription.

Examples of Medication Needs Discussed During Virtual Visits

• Antibiotics: For selected bacterial infections when the diagnosis is sufficiently supported; antibiotics are not routinely indicated for viral colds or flu.
• Antiviral medications: When appropriate for conditions such as influenza, COVID-19, or recurrent herpes infections after evaluating timing, indications, and interactions.
• Blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes medications: Continuation or adjustment for established patients with appropriate monitoring and laboratory information.
• Thyroid medications: Review and refills based on history, symptoms, and recent thyroid testing when needed.
• Allergy, asthma and dermatologic medications: Selected treatments or refills after assessment; breathing emergencies require immediate in-person care.
• Nausea and other symptom-relief medications: When appropriate after assessing severity, dehydration risk, and potential causes.
• Weight-management medication follow-up: Review of effectiveness, tolerability, contraindications, and monitoring for patients receiving medically supervised treatment.
• Other ongoing prescriptions: Individualized medication reconciliation, renewals, or referrals for in-person assessment when indicated.

Prescription safety: Controlled substances and other restricted medications have additional federal and state requirements that can change. Prescribing them by telemedicine is considered only when legally permitted and clinically appropriate. The practice does not guarantee controlled-substance prescriptions, antibiotics, or any particular medication. Some drugs require physical examination, laboratory monitoring, or specialist care.

Frequently Asked Questions About Telemedicine

Can I get a prescription through a virtual doctor visit?

Sometimes. A physician may prescribe or renew medication after evaluating your condition and determining that a virtual visit is medically and legally appropriate. Prescriptions are never guaranteed.

Can a telemedicine doctor prescribe antibiotics?

Antibiotics may be prescribed for selected suspected or confirmed bacterial infections when appropriate. Viral illnesses do not routinely benefit from antibiotics, and testing or an in-person examination may be necessary.

Can I get my existing medications refilled?

Medication refills may be possible after reviewing your medical history, current treatment, monitoring needs, and applicable prescribing rules. Certain medications require an office visit or additional testing.

Do I need a concierge membership for a telemedicine appointment?

Contact our team to confirm appointment eligibility, current fees, and whether membership is required for your situation.

Can you order laboratory tests during a telemedicine visit?

Yes, when medically indicated. Your physician can discuss appropriate laboratory or diagnostic testing and where it can be completed.

What symptoms are not appropriate for telemedicine?

Chest pain, severe shortness of breath, stroke symptoms, severe abdominal pain, uncontrolled bleeding, or other potentially life-threatening conditions require emergency evaluation. Call 911 in an emergency.
