Virtual Care

Convenient care from anywhere in Washington, on your computer or smart device.

Virtual care statewide

Kinwell’s Virtual Care Clinic brings primary care to your computer or smart device through your MyChart account. Virtual care provides additional appointment options for acute conditions. You can meet with the same clinician you see in person, or establish care with our online clinician, Dr. Jlyn Pritchard.

Virtual care is a great option for busy patients who prefer the ease of online consultations, or who live far from our 16 clinics. Our clinicians can handle many situations online that will save you a trip to the ER or urgent care. A virtual care visit may determine an in-person diagnostic exam is necessary and you will need to visit a clinic if lab work is required.

A Mychart account is required for virtual care appointments. Virtual care is appropriate for health concerns such as:

  • Asthma and allergies
  • Respiratory illnesses
  • Ear infections

  • Family Medical Leave Act paperwork
