Telemedicine Virtual Visits

In response to the Covid-19 crisis, with the safety of our patients and staff top of mind, Puget Sound Orthopaedics is minimizing in-person clinic visits.  In order to meet our community’s surgical needs, we are pleased to introduce Telemedicine Virtual Visits starting March 24, 2020.

At the virtual visit, if the patient’s reason for consultation is not resolved, the patient will be triaged as to whether they meet criteria and is appropriate for, A) an urgent care face to face visit, B) a subsequent face to face visit at a later date, or C) a referral to the ER for acute care. During these unprecedented times, we would like to support our community hospitals as Emergency rooms focus resources to manage the Covid-19 crisis.
