There are three options to connect, text message, email, or via the website Claris.me. If you are a user of Apple products prior to your appointment follow the instructions linked here to download the Vidyo App. You will not need to create a username or password.

1. Several minutes before your appointment a nurse or medical assistant will call you to connect and share the meeting id with you via the available options.
2. You will go to Claris.me and enter the secure meeting id and click Start Video Call.
   (If a text is sent you will open text and click on link. )
3. If you are asked to grant Claris access to your camera and microphone please allow, this ensures we can see and hear you during the visit.

5. End visit.
