What is Online Consultation?

Coming in for an office visit is not always convenient and has a real cost to you. In addition to the inconvenience, co-payments, gas and parking, lost wages, child care and other costs for office visits add up. Holzer Clinic is sensitive to these costs and understands your time is valuable. While some healthcare issues require an office visit, such as new symptoms, there are many occasions when you can receive just as much, or more, individualized information— without a face-to-face meeting—through the use of our secure e-mail service—Online Consultation.

Our Online Consultation secure e-mail service, and the modest fee of $25 we may charge*, is designed for your convenience. It can save you time and money when your questions can be answered effectively online. Online Consultation may not be the ideal service for all patients, but it will serve the needs of many and we are happy to offer this service.

*We will never charge you a fee for any Online Consultation without prior notice, and in some cases the information will be provided at no charge.

What is Secure Messaging?

Secure messaging (secure e-mail) is a new service that allows you to contact our practice without having to pick up the phone or make an in-person visit to the office. Use secure messaging from the convenience of your computer, and without the inconvenience of a phone call or travel to the physician office. Gain direct access to secure messaging with your physician from the log-in icon located on your physician’s page on the www.holzerclinic.com website.

Some specific examples include:
  • Follow-up advice about your current medical situation already evaluated by your physician
  • Gathering educational information on options
  • Reviewing test results with suggestions for further evaluation or therapy
  • Obtain and discuss results from our Advanced Laboratory
When should I use Secure Messaging?

Secure Messaging is only intended to be used for general administrative purposes. If you would like to ask a clinical question, you should use our Online Consultation service, which may have a modest fee associated with it. Examples of clinical questions more appropriate for Online Consultation include:

  • make or reschedule an appointment
  • request a prescription refill
  • Get advice about your current medical situation
  • Gather information on treatment options
  • Review test results with suggestions for further evaluation or therapy

Secure Messaging and Online Consultation
should never be used for Medical Emergencies!

Why should I use Secure Messaging?

Secure messaging eliminates phone calls that take more time than sending a secure e-mail—you can contact us when it’s convenient for you. No more waiting on hold. Access answers to routine, non-urgent, requests and questions from the comfort of your home or office. It provides you a written record of your messages that you can save or print and refer back to.

Respecting your privacy is extremely important to us. Rest assured that your Secure Messages are protected by secure encryption technology.
