What are sick visits?

Sick visits are medical appointments that manage those unexpected illnesses and injuries. You can get sick at any time and not always during normal business hours.

Jessica is a skilled and experienced practitioner who believes everyone deserves high-quality, accessible, and affordable health care. At her telehealth practice, Vodicka Family Health & Wellness LLC, she provides sick visits for people of all ages, including infants, children, adolescents, and adults.

Because she provides care through telehealth, she has more flexibility with scheduling and can usually see you right away. 

What conditions benefit from sick visits?

Jessica is a skilled nurse practitioner who diagnoses and treats many acute health conditions. You may benefit from a sick visit at Vodicka Family Health & Wellness LLC if you have:

• Urinary tract infection (UTI)
• Ear infection
• Sore throat
• Congestions
• Headache
• Muscle strain
• Sexually transmitted disease (STD)
• Skin or dermatology issues

Jessica also manages chronic health conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and diabetes, providing sick care for exacerbation of symptoms related to these health issues. 

What happens during sick visits?

The details of your sick visit with Jessica depend on your needs. She does most visits through her telehealth platform. To get the most out of your appointment, Jessica requests you go to a quiet room with good lighting. 

Jessica asks detailed questions about your health condition, including symptoms and when it started. For injuries, she asks you to provide details of the injury. She reviews your medical history and the types of medications you take. Jessica may also ask for health data like your body weight and temperature.

If she needs additional information, she orders labs or imaging tests at a clinic near you. She may also have some tests sent to your house or perform the test during an in-home care visit. After completing these tests, Jessica reviews the results so she can provide the right care. 

If you need a prescription, Jessica sends the order electronically to the pharmacy of your choice. She schedules a follow-up appointment to monitor your health and healing and adjust your plan as needed.
