Took my elderly mother, who is also a cancer patient there looking for a primary care doctor. I have 30 years of experience under my belt of dealing with medical professionals, and I don't give 5 stars easily. The place was immaculate, and we were greeted with smiles when we walked through the door.

Outbreaks can be triggered by stress, illness, fatigue, sun exposure, hormonal changes, or a weakened immune system.
How are cold sores treated?
Treatment may include antiviral medications, topical creams, and symptom management techniques to reduce discomfort and duration.

Does insurance cover cold sores evaluation?
Most major insurance plans cover evaluations and treatment for cold sores at in-clinic or mobile visits.
How does a telehealth visit work?
Telehealth allows providers to assess lesions visually, review symptoms, and prescribe antiviral treatments remotely if appropriate.
How long do cold sores usually last?
Cold sores typically resolve within 7–14 days, though antiviral therapy may shorten duration and relieve discomfort.
When should urgent care be sought?
Seek urgent care for severe, recurrent, or widespread lesions, or if associated with fever, eye involvement, or immune compromise.
