*UPDATE – We are no longer offering virtual visits, as they are no longer covered by insurance*
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed business as we know it in the US. Many companies are allowing employees to work from home, and businesses are trying to stay ahead of the curve as less foot traffic means fewer people are shopping in stores or seeing others face to face, at least for the time being.
We’re adapting too, and that’s why we’re offering virtual visits as a way to ensure patients can still have access to a high level of medical care even in these uncertain times. However, we’re not just offering telemedicine consultations while the Stay At Home order is in place, we will be offering these online consultations long after the pandemic has ended. We’re doing this because we want to make it easier on the patient to see a provider, and we believe we can still offer an extraordinary level of care through an electronic means.
One of the reasons why these remote consultations work so well is because Dr. Silverman has access to imaging results from a number of clinics. You can have your physician forward the images to his office, or he can view them if they were taken through one of these providers.

You can also schedule an appointment by calling our office at (952) 224-8500. We can answer any questions you might have at this time as well.
The reason we’re really throwing ourselves into these telemedicine visits is because we truly believe they will be extremely beneficial for our patients. Patients can still be seen by Dr. Silverman, we’ll have access to the their imaging tests, and they don’t need to worry about traveling to our office, which is convenient even when social distancing isn’t in effect. We hope to reach more patients who wouldn’t normally be able to experience The Silverman Difference without a long travel to and from the clinic.
Set up your telehealth consultation today and see how we can help you without stepping foot out your front door. For help with any aspect of your foot or ankle treatment, reach out to Dr. Silverman and the experienced team at Silverman Ankle & Foot today.
