The Doctor Who Makes House Calls

Ring. Ring. Video connects. 

“I see you! Can you hear me?!”

Mr. Smith just purchased his first smart phone last month. He has access to his grandkids, beekeeping Youtube channel, and now his doctor from the comfort of his front porch. 

“Incredible!”  He laughs, “I remember when doctors made a different kind of house call.” 

Victoria Flynn, M.D., is an assistant professor of Psychiatry at UAMS.
