Main telemedicine gig right now is diagnosing and managing HIV and other STDs. Patients love it as it's super private, and even testing can be done discreetly at home with a mailed kit.
Currently completing an online fellowship in obesity medicine and plan to start my own online practice or collaborate with midlevels who do so. Will probably get into tele-urgent care as well.
I've learned a little about all aspects of medicine as an ER doc, and it's exciting to apply that knowledge to telemedicine. Telemedicine is the Wild West right now. COVID-19 just opened it up a couple years back. We don't really know how to maximally benefit patients with it, but there are all kinds of new models being tried. When it works, it really works, without all the bloat and entrenched rentiers that can make brick & mortar medicine awful for both doctors and patients.
Reminds me of the state of the Internet around 2000. Wide open.
