In today’s fast-paced world, healthcare is evolving to meet the needs of busy patients—and telemedicine is leading the way.
Also known as telehealth, this innovative service uses secure telecommunications technology to deliver orthopedic care remotely. At Rolando Garcia, M.D., we’re proud to offer telemedicine consultations that provide both convenience and expert care to our patients across South Florida and beyond.
What is Telemedicine in Orthopedic Care?
Telemedicine allows patients to consult with an experienced, board-certified orthopedic spine specialist without having to visit a clinic or hospital. Using a smartphone, tablet, or computer, patients can connect virtually for a detailed evaluation of their symptoms, receive guidance on treatment options, and get follow-up care—all from the comfort of their home.
Key Benefits of Orthopedic Telemedicine
✅ Improved Access to Care
Whether you live in a remote area or have mobility issues, telemedicine bridges the gap between patients and specialists—giving you faster access to orthopedic expertise when you need it most.
✅ Time-Saving Convenience
No traffic, no waiting rooms, no hassle. Book your virtual consultation at a time that works best for your schedule.
✅ Cost-Effective Alternative
At just $500 per session, telemedicine can help you avoid multiple costly in-person visits while still getting quality care (refer to our refund policies for details).
✅ Faster Consultations and Diagnoses
Need a second opinion or post-surgical advice? Virtual appointments can lead to quicker answers and faster relief.
✅ Continuity of Orthopedic Care
Stay in touch with your orthopedic specialist throughout your treatment or recovery with consistent virtual follow-ups.
✅ Use of Remote Monitoring Tools
Our team can review data from wearable devices to track your progress and adjust care plans in real time.
✅ Reduced Risk of Exposure
By staying at home, you avoid crowded waiting areas and reduce your risk of catching or spreading infectious diseases.
✅ Better Collaboration Between Specialists
Telehealth enables easier coordination between orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, and other providers working on your care.
✅ More Engaged and Informed Patients
During a virtual visit, there’s more opportunity for educating patients about their condition, self-care tips, and recovery goals.
When In-Person Visits Are Still Necessary
While telemedicine is a valuable tool, it is not a replacement for all forms of orthopedic care. Some cases will still require in-person evaluations, imaging studies, physical examinations, or surgical procedures. Our team will guide you to the right next steps based on your condition.
