Welcome to the 21st century! Bambini is pleased to now offer e-visits. Sometimes referred to as telemedicine consultations or video chat, e-visits are:
  • convenient -- no need to fight traffic or sit in crowded waiting room -- esp here in the COVID-19 era!!
  • secure -- this is not simply Skype or Facetime with the doctor.  Doxy.me, the system we chose, is HIPAA-compliant.
  • since the COVID-19 outbreak, most if not all  insurance plans are covering e-visits.  Some even the co-pay.

Less Suitable for an E-Visit

  • Your daughter has sore throat, you are worried it's strep.  We will need to do a culture.
  • Your child has bad stomachache and you are thinking it could be appendicitis.  He may need CT or admission.
  • The baby has bad cold, teething, and grabbing ears.  We need to get a look at the eardrums.

Concerns Suitable to an E-Visit​

  • Your child need a follow-up visit for ADHD, Lyme, PANDAS, Hashimoto's, and other chronic ailments.
  • ​Your son is away at college and has flare of acne.  Would be important to have good webcam.
  • Your six year-old wakes with what looks like pink eye.  No other symptoms.  Weather is lousy.
  • Your child had numerous blood tests.  You would like to discuss the results with the doctor, and you live more than an hour from the office.


Telemedicine e-visits

  • For best results, it may be helpful to reboot your device before the call. 
  • ​Type in your child's name & click check-in.
  • ​Allow your browser access to camera & microphone.  Click the "start test" button in waiting room.
  • If your insurance carrier has changed since last visit, please send us photo of your new card (front & back). 

​Schedule & Prepare for an E-Visit

  1. Your child must have been physically seen at least once in our office.  At this time, all of our clinicians, including Dr. Malak, will be offering e-visits.
  2. Rest is pretty simple:  call the office to schedule visit as you normally do (or use portal if you wish).  Be sure to request reasonable appointment length.  
  3. For families without insurance (self-pay), submit payment via our Patient Portal or by Paypal at link below.  Be mindful that no-show fee will still apply if you fail to keep appointment.   
  4. ​A few minutes prior to scheduled* e-visit, log in by clicking badge below corresponding to the clinician you are booked with and follow prompts.

​If your appointment is in the middle or at the end of a session, just like in the office, the doctor may be running late; emergencies come up here!  If waiting is a concern, please don't hesitate to call office and check to see if we're running a little late.

Telemedicine Success Tips
● Use an  iPhone or Android -- or PC / tablet with camera, microphone, and speakers.  Phones often seem to do a better job than desktops.  There is no App to download.
● Use headphones when possible so only you and the other person can hear your conversation.
● An internet connection with adequate bandwidth. Click to test your speed here.
● Important!  Doxy.me supports  Safari 11 (iPhone), Chrome (Android), and Firefox browsers.
