June 28, 2024

Help is just a phone call away.

Life can be challenging, and sometimes we all need someone to lean on. Whether you're facing emotional distress, mental health struggles, or a crisis, there are caring individuals ready to lend an ear and offer support. Try talking to a family member, friend, healthcare provider, or faith leader. Or, try a crisis hotline.


The goal of this post is to provide a comprehensive list of crisis hotline numbers, connecting you to compassionate professionals who can guide you through difficult moments. Remember, you're not alone. Help is just a call away.

Televisit is not a replacement of traditional medicine; it is an extension of our traditional model of care. The Televisit allows our Doctors or Nurse Practitioners to diagnose and treat patients who are unable to make it to the office. From your computer or with the Healow app and a compatible mobile device, you can have a face-to-face conversation with a Doctor or Nurse Practitioner from the convenience of your home, hotel, or where ever you may be traveling. You must be web enabled on the Patient Portal to schedule a Televisit. If you are not, please ask our receptionist to web enable your account.
