WELCOME TO TELEMEDICINE

Lots of things changed with the COVID-19 epidemic, and we at ABC Pediatrics did our best to bridge the “social distancing” divide this had caused. The question was “How Can Telemedicine Benefit Us During and AFTER The COVID-19 Pandemic”?

 We at ABC Pediatrics are doing our part by providing support to our patients using Telehealth, while also providing health center visits to those who must see the providers in person.

Most of the patients have continued to express a great satisfaction at the ease of access and the safety of such a choice.

Your prescriptions are sent to the Pharmacy and you can go and pick the meds prescribed, with minimal contact with any person.

l1- Treat a telemedicine visit just like a regular visit.

2- Feel free to include another person if you want.

3- Don’t stress about the technology.

Asthma also called bronchial asthma. A condition in which a person’s airways become inflamed, narrow and swell, and produce extra mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe. Asthma can be minor or it can be interfere with daily activities. In some cases, it may lead to a life-threatening attack. Asthma may cause difficulty breathing, chest pain, cough, and wheezing. Asthma can usually be managed with rescue inhalers to treat symptoms and controller inhalers that prevent symptoms.
