Telemedicine

CPDMH has one of the largest telemedicine programs in the region.  Telemedicine connects patients and health care providers using two-way, secure videoconferencing, reducing the need to travel to receive care.  A telemedicine appointment is just like a regular appointment, only the health care provider is on a monitor and uses tele-diagnostic equipment to hear heart and breath sounds and a special camera to provide close-up images – all as if you are sitting in the same room.  At your appointment, you will be able to see, hear and talk to a doctor or other health professional.
