radar1According to its website, SwiftMD isn’t just better telemedicine; it’s better medicine because of its physicians’ quality. Patient telephone calls are usually returned within 30 minutes, any time of the day or night. They employ a powerful eHR that is secure, HIPAA-compliant and keeps patients informed about their care. And, it is all done at an affordable price.
