Telehealth (Pt 2): Virtual Care Done Right (and How It’s Going Wrong)

August 14, 2025

Telehealth can be an incredible tool — when it’s done right.

In this follow-up to our first telehealth episode, we’re diving into the best uses for virtual care, the worst abuses we’re seeing from big companies, and how to make sure we keep our patients’ best interests at the center.

In this episode, we cover:

The most valuable applications for telehealth, including:
- Postpartum appointments when leaving the house is tough
- Hybrid models for patients traveling long distances
- Maintaining care through illness, childcare issues, or bad weather
- Wellness check-ins for long-term patients
- Specialty remote consults when no local experts are available
- Reviewing home environments for treatment impact
- Helping apprehensive patients or building trust before an in-home visit
Why the biggest mistake is treating telehealth as a replacement for in-person care — instead of an augmentation
How larger, profit-driven companies are undermining in-person care (and the profession) with misleading marketing

We’ll also share real examples from companies whose marketing actively puts down in-person care to sell telehealth, and talk about why that’s a dangerous trend for our entire profession.

👉 Whether you offer telehealth now or are considering it, this is your blueprint for doing it well — while protecting the integrity of our field.
