At South Seminole Hospital, our physicians use telemedicine in some emergency cases to communicate with physicians at other healthcare facilities. Telemedicine benefits patients by allowing our physicians to confer with physicians at Orlando Regional Medical Center through state of the art video conferencing. This also allows physicians to consult one another across town or across the country if further consultation is needed.
