What is Telemedicine/Virtual care?
Telemedicine is care provided over video, text or phone rather than in-person. Telemedicine uses technology to bring care to you!
Telemedicine Kits
Your kit includes your own pediatric pulse oximeter (to check heart rate and oxygen level), thermometer, and a camera otoscope (ear camera), so that together we can diagnose conditions such as ear infections on a text or video consultation!

What is Medical Advice?
Medical advice is specific advice pertaining to a person or situation. It includes diagnosis, treatment, and recommendations about what to do! Medical advice should always be given in the context of a provider-patient relationship and therefore can only be given to Colorado residents recieving telemedicine services. Medical information and education means I can discuss general topics like "What are examples of sleep training methods?" and "What foods are best to introduce first to an infant?" Still helpful, but a very different perspective.
Why is Telemedicine offered only in Colorado?
For now, Laura is licensed in Colorado only, but would consider expanding in the future! Nurse Practitioner laws vary by state with Colorado (and other western states) allowing independent practice and others having more restrictions. Let her know if you are interested in telemedicine where you live!
