Telehealth
Care from home, with the same clinical rigor.
We offer HIPAA-compliant virtual visits via Doxy.me — ideal for follow-ups, medication reviews, and lab discussions when an in-person visit isn't required.

How telehealth works at Sierra Rheumatology.
We use Doxy.me — a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform — for our virtual appointments. Each provider has a dedicated waiting room you'll be sent a link to.
Telehealth visits are best suited for follow-ups, medication management, lab review, and check-ins on disease activity. New-patient visits and infusion-related care are conducted in person.
