Virtual Visits

Cleveland Clinic’s Orthopaedic & Rheumatologic Institute offers virtual visit appointments, allowing you to meet with a specialist from the comfort of your home, using a mobile device, tablet, computer or web-enabled device.

Why go virtual? It's an easy, convenient and secure way to see your provider face-to-face without having to leave home. This saves you travel time, parking fees and time spent in the waiting room — and you can also have a loved one or caregiver join you. If appropriate, you can also get a prescription sent to the pharmacy of your choice.

Many insurance companies cover the cost of virtual visits, so check with your insurance company ahead of time. Interested in getting started? Call your provider to find out what virtual visit options are available.
