In an effort to maximize access and convenience Temescal Creek Medicine provides several different ways for you to engage with your doctor. We believe patients should be able to access health care in ways that best suit their needs. For some this may mean office visits, for others telephone or video visits, even house calls. Your choice! We strive to provide the care you want and need, when and how you want it.
