    Can Virtual Care Replace My Doctor?

    At Novant Health, the care we give extends beyond our medical centers and clinics with several virtual care options. But it’s important for patients to know and understand when it’s appropriate to use them. While they can be a wonderful resource for certain situations, the care provided by your doctor, face to face, is unmatched when it comes to your overall health and wellbeing. In this episode of Meaningful Medicine, we’re learning more about a topic that’s become increasingly relevant in recent years – virtual care. It’s convenient and accessible, but it raises an important question … Can it truly replace in-person care? Joining us today is Dr. Anitha Lokesh, a family medicine physician at Novant Health, who can speak to how virtual care has enhanced the patient experience – and where its limits lie.  Learn more about Anitha Lokesh, MD
