Telemedicine Services From Medical Professionals in Houston, TX

Lifeline Urgent Care in Houston, Texas, has always provided telemedicine services to sick patients who want to avoid waiting rooms and unnecessary interaction with others. While the telehealth approach isn’t appropriate for every case, the rise of coronavirus (Covid-19) has increased the importance of telemedicine services in the fight against spreading disease. If you are feeling ill and want to consult with a medical professional about your symptoms from the safety of your own home, you can simply call Lifeline Urgent Care at 281-771-1144 or book a video visit online.

What is Telemedicine?

​

Through Lifeline Urgent Care’s telemedicine services, you’ll be able to speak with us “face-to-face” via a smartphone, tablet, or computer. This service is ideal for patients with common health concerns, including:

​

• Sore throat

• Cough

• Congestion

• Sinus pain and pressure

• Mild asthma and allergies

• Urinary tract infections

• Pink eye (conjunctivitis)

• Rashes and minor burns

​

Of course, you may be concerned about your risk for Covid-19 and whether or not you may have the virus. If you feel feverish or have a cough or shortness of breath, you should stay at home and take advantage of our telemedicine services. Depending on your symptoms and risk factors, we may ask you to visit our Houston urgent care clinic for a drive-through temperature reading and flu or coronavirus testing (subject to availability). If you have symptoms that are consistent with coronavirus, we have created a separate entrance to a quarantined area of our clinic where you can be evaluated by one of our board-certified physicians and receive expert guidance about your next steps.
