What patients like
Loved using the virtual health visit service. It was fast, easy to use and saved a lot of time. I would likely book another virtual visit in the future.
For the first time in 35+ years when speaking to a doctor, I was asked sincerely if I had any other questions or health concerns I wanted to bring up. This virtual meeting was the first time I didn't feel rushed out the door after my initial issue was addressed.
It's life changing being able to do virtual appointments. It saves us time, and meant that my child missed less school than needed. Her father was able to join too which doesn't normally happen.

VIRTUAL HEALTH VISIT PATIENT SURVEY
Time spent with provider
Avoiding exposure to infectious diseases, such as COVID-19
Could ask questions
Felt health concerns were addressed
Felt it was as good as in-person appointments
Compared to in-person appointment, it reduced anxiety
I think the option for virtual health visits is very valuable. I do not think they should completely replace in-person visits or that they are appropriate for every type of care. Virtual visit options have increased my ability to access care and feel less anxiety about trying to see a doctor in-person or needing to travel.
I'm a caregiver. My parent would not have been able to do this without assistance to set up Zoom or understand how to open the link/video.
I much prefer in person appointments, but am willing to do virtual when necessary. I hope, as a society, we don't all go to virtual as our first line of contact. In person is much more important.
Survey participants rated their most recent virtual health visit experience with Zoom with 95 out of 100 points.
What patients don’t like
■ Unable to build a relationship virtually with health care provider (11%)
■ Not having access to a private space (5%)
■ Trouble staying focused (5%)
■ Feeling worried about not fully understanding the health care provider (5%)
■ Feeling unable to express themselves well (5%)
Results of the virtual health visits
For those with mental health issues, it reinforces the idea that care is within reach. For anxiety and depression specifically, it helps take away any stigma of attending the designated buildings themselves, thereby reducing potential triggers/barriers to seeking and receiving care.
