Meet Your Community’s Mental Health Needs
In order to meet the demands of more medically complicated conditions, Access TeleCare’s telemedicine services offer consultation-liaison psychiatry services. Our consultation-liaison approach specializes in the diagnosis and management of psychiatric disorders that are comorbid with general medical/surgical illness.

Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry
