It is a valuable tool for initial patent consultations and evaluations, medication management, specialist appointments, follow-up doctor's visits, and management of chronic medical conditions. Achieve Medical Center health care professionals can employ telemedicine to help patients with major depressive disorder and other mood disorders, ensuring a continuum of therapeutic care.
