Scheduled Video Visits
See a Nemours Children's Provider From Home
If your child’s provider recommends it, you and your child can have a video visit from the comfort of your home using the Nemours Children's MyChart. Nemours providers have cared for thousands of patients on video (telehealth) for a long time. We’re ready to provide the best care for your child.
A video visit offers many benefits. You can avoid the waiting room, save time, and reduce the stress of traveling. Most video visits are covered by insurance.
To have a video visit, all you’ll need is a smartphone, tablet or computer. Your device must have a working camera and microphone and a strong Wi-Fi signal or cellular data service.
To Get Started
Ask your primary care or specialty doctor if a video visit is a good option for your child. If it is, you can schedule an appointment through their office.
Once your visit is scheduled, you’ll need to set up your device and create a Nemours Children's MyChart account.
