Virtual Visit Appointment Information

Below is information about how to schedule and start a virtual visit with your physician

  1. Call the office and request a virtual visit.

    If your medical need can be managed by a telehealth visit, the office will assist you in scheduling an appointment.

    Telehealth appointments are confidential visits between a patient (regardless of location) and provider. Patients can participate in telehealth visits using any web-camera-enabled device such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a web camera installed.

  2. Receive an email with login instructions

    Once the appointment is scheduled, the patient will receive an email from mclaren.org with a link to the “virtual waiting room” the day before the visit.

  3. Login 15 minutes prior to your visit

    On the day of the visit, the patient is contacted by a staff member from the office about 15 minutes before the scheduled appointment to assist the patient in entering the “Virtual Waiting Room”.
