Dr. Edwards is a board-certified family physician licensed in New York, seeing patients entirely by video. Same-day appointments, seven days a week, $125 flat — from your apartment, your office, or the train home.
New York makes seeing a doctor easy and having a doctor hard. There is an urgent care on nearly every block, and almost none of them will remember you were there. Getting a primary care appointment as a new patient in Manhattan or Brooklyn routinely means a wait of a month or more, and the last three doctors you saw may not have been the same person.
Dr. Edwards is licensed in New York and practices entirely by video. Same day, seven days a week — which matters when the symptom starts at 8pm and your options are an emergency department or nothing.
She handles the ordinary things that derail a week: sinus and ear infections, strep, UTIs, rashes, a prescription that ran out, birth control, anxiety and depression, blood pressure and thyroid management, and the annual physical you keep postponing.
$125 flat, every visit. No membership, no subscription, no surprise invoice. For a great many New Yorkers on high-deductible plans, that is less than the copay plus the two hours.
Every visit is 100% video. Same price, same physician, seven days a week.
Cold, flu, sinus and ear infections, UTIs, strep, rashes, pink eye, minor injuries.
New prescriptions and refills sent electronically to your New York pharmacy same day.
Depression, anxiety, insomnia, stress management and ADHD evaluation.
Birth control, UTI treatment, menstrual issues, prenatal counseling, annual GYN care.
Diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, thyroid, asthma and COPD management.
Wellness visits, screening guidance, immunizations, lab interpretation.
Prostate health screening, testosterone evaluation, erectile dysfunction, hair loss, cardiovascular risk and preventive screenings.
Coverage varies by plan — text 830-276-2166 and we will verify yours before you book. Self-pay patients receive a superbill for possible partial reimbursement. Medicare, Medicaid and HMO plans are not accepted.
A common assumption about telemedicine is that it stops at the prescription. It doesn't. Here is exactly how the parts that need a physical facility actually work.
Orders are sent electronically to a lab near you the same day, and you go in for the draw whenever it suits you — no appointment with us required. Results come back to Dr. Edwards, and she reviews them with you rather than leaving you to interpret a portal PDF alone.
X-rays, ultrasounds and MRIs can be ordered and sent to an imaging center in your area, and the radiologist's report is reviewed in a follow-up visit. Some studies require a hands-on exam first — when that is the case, she will tell you plainly instead of ordering a scan that cannot answer the question.
When something needs a cardiologist, dermatologist, endocrinologist or surgeon, you get a referral with the clinical notes already written, so you are not re-explaining your history from scratch. Where possible she helps identify someone in your network.
Ordering authority and facility requirements vary by state, and some imaging studies require an in-person examination before they can be ordered. If a test or referral needs something this practice cannot provide, you will hear that directly — along with what to do instead.
Questions between appointments, prescription refills, lab results, records requests and scheduling all go through Spruce — a HIPAA-compliant messaging platform built for clinical care. No app required, and no clinical detail sitting in an ordinary text thread.

Yes. She holds an active New York license. You must be physically located in New York — or another state where she is licensed — at the time of your visit.
Yes, anywhere in the state — Buffalo, Rochester, Albany, Syracuse, the Hudson Valley, Long Island. The visit is by video and location is limited only by licensure.
Urgent care is built for one visit and a stranger each time. This is primary care — the same physician, a continuous record, and follow-up. It is also faster and, at $125 flat, usually cheaper.
Aetna PPO and select BCBS/Anthem plans are accepted; coverage varies by plan. Text 830-276-2166 and we will verify before you book. If out of network, $125 self-pay with a superbill is often the simplest path.
Yes, when clinically appropriate, sent electronically to your pharmacy. Controlled substances require in-person evaluation under New York law and are not available by telemedicine on request.
Same-day slots seven days a week, including evenings that fit an Eastern Time schedule.
Yes. Lab orders go out electronically the same day to a facility near you, and you can go for the draw whenever it is convenient — no appointment with us needed first. Results are reviewed with you in a follow-up visit, and Dr. Edwards will explain what they mean and what changes, if any, they call for.
Usually, yes — imaging orders are sent to a center in your area and the radiologist's report is reviewed with you afterward. Some studies require a hands-on examination before they can be ordered, and in those cases you will be told directly and pointed toward local care rather than sent for a scan that cannot answer the question.
Yes, when it is warranted. You get a referral with the clinical notes already written so the specialist is not starting from zero, and where possible Dr. Edwards helps identify someone in your network. She will also tell you honestly when a specialist is not needed.
