High Cholesterol (Hyperlipidemia)
High cholesterol has no symptoms, many people don’t know that their cholesterol is high. A blood test (lipid panel) can check for high cholesterol levels. High cholesterol increases the risk for heart disease and stroke. We can help by refilling or starting you on new medication for high cholesterol. We can also provide lab orders near you to check your cholesterol.
Most visits are between 5 to 10 minutes based on complexity. Your online visit is kept efficient so you can save time and money instead of driving and waiting for an appointment. You may receive a new prescription or refill if appropriate. We electronically submit this shortly after your visit.
There are no hidden fees for our service. We keep our costs affordable so that you can better cover any outside medically related fees that may be necessary for treatment (with or without insurance) after the visit.
Telemedicine has been around since the 1980’s and has vastly improved since then. We treat you based on your history and symptoms, physical / visual presentation and overall condition. We are able to provide a diagnosis with a high degree of accuracy and provide follow up visits by secure messaging or further visits to ensure effectiveness of your treatment.
