How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

The first snow in our area this week....and as a doc, that used to mean either being risky and trying to drive in to the office, or simply moving all the appointments, canceling the day (and having fun in the snow but not making any money). But hey, it's 2020---this snowstorm, I simply did telemedicine visits from my laptop at home rather than from my desktop at the office. My staff worked from home, checking phone messages every hour or so, and communicating with me either by text or via our electronic medical record. So, patients still got seen, I still made some money, and we don't have to reschedule anyone! Covid made telemedicine rise to the forefront....about time. It's one of the silver linings in this pandemic!
