If you live outside of the Pittsburgh area, you can receive specialty care virtually at a UPMC Outpatient Telemedicine Center. We have several centers where we can connect you to UPMC specialists virtually — without having to travel to the city.
When you arrive at a UPMC Outpatient Telemedicine Center, a nurse will take you to an exam room with a large screen. They'll check your blood pressure and weight and ask questions about your health, your medications, and any concerns you may have. Then, a doctor will appear on the screen via a secure video call, and the nurse will send real-time info.
