Group Appointments (with doctors)


Group Appointments with Doctors
In recent years, a growing number of doctors have begun holding group appointments -- seeing up to a dozen patients with similar medical concerns all at once. Advocates of the approach say such visits allow doctors to treat more patients, spend more time with them (even if not one-on-one), increase appointment availability and improve health outcomes.

Shared Medical Appointments

Shared medical appointments, or group visits, are becoming a popular — and possibly more satisfying — way to see the doctor.
