TELEMEDICINE

Telemedicine is considered a "new" approach to treating patients in situations where access to medical care is limited or restricted. In fact, most physicians have practiced telemedicine in their communications with their patients since the invention of the telephone. At this time, the entire field of "telemedicine" is being recognized and both state/federal regulations are beginning to be put in place to govern this practice. To the extent this practice is allowed by law, Dr. Wind is available for telemedicine services. But these services are only available to patients who have been evaluated and treated in person prior to the initiation of telemedicine services.
