Patient questions

Before your appointment.

Quick answers about appointments, telehealth, kidney care, insurance, and when emergency care is more appropriate.

Can I request a same-day online doctor appointment?

Yes. AspireMed accepts same-day requests, subject to physician availability and clinical suitability. A request is not confirmed until the office contacts you.

What can be treated through telehealth?

Appropriate concerns may include common illnesses, medication or laboratory review, diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney-health follow-up, thyroid concerns, weight management, preventive care, mental-health screening, and selected second opinions. Some conditions require examination, testing, urgent care, or emergency evaluation.

What kidney concerns can begin with a telehealth consultation?

Telehealth may be appropriate for chronic kidney disease follow-up, abnormal creatinine or eGFR results, protein in the urine, difficult-to-control blood pressure, fluid-balance or swelling concerns, electrolyte abnormalities, medication questions, dialysis education, and selected kidney-related second opinions. Some concerns require laboratory testing, an examination, urgent care, or emergency evaluation.

Do you accept insurance?
