Telemedicine does not replace doctors

Technology is the connection – not the healthcare professional. iPrescribe online provides the digital infrastructure that enables patients and healthcare professionals to interact remotely. Doctors remain responsible for assessing patients and making clinical decisions based on the information available to them. When remote care is not appropriate, patients can be advised to seek in-person medical attention.
