Telemedicine Services at Jenkins Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Medicine
At Jenkins Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Medicine, we understand that your time is precious.

Why Choose Telemedicine Appointments vs. In-Office Visits?
There are some situations in which an in-office appointment is necessary. However, many common concerns can be addressed over the phone or video. Instead of wasting time sitting through traffic or rearranging your day to schedule a visit with a provider, you can enjoy virtual visits from the comfort of your own home or workplace. This makes it easier to obtain the care you need when you need it!
Will My Insurance Cover My Telemedicine Appointment?
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, many health insurance companies have expanded their coverage to include video visits and telemedicine as a safer alternative to in-person appointments. For more information regarding your plan’s coverage, contact your insurance company to determine if you qualify.
Do I Need to Be a Current or Established Patient?
We utilize telehealth appointments for both new and established patients in our practice.
