Are virtual stress treatments as effective as in-person visits?

Virtual care can be effective for many people experiencing mild to moderate stress or anxiety. Clinicians evaluate your symptoms and recommend strategies or treatments based on your needs. If symptoms are severe or concerning, in-person care may be recommended.

Can I get medication for stress or anxiety through a virtual visit?

Clinicians can discuss medication options during a phone or video visit and may send a prescription to your preferred pharmacy when appropriate. Medication decisions depend on your symptoms, history, and overall health.

Can I get virtual stress treatment if I do not have insurance?

Yes. If your plan does not cover Galileo, you can still access care through clear, self-pay pricing that appears before each visit.

What types of stress or anxiety can Galileo help with online?

Galileo clinicians support everyday stress, generalized anxiety, trouble sleeping, burnout, and physical symptoms related to stress. They can guide you with coping tools, lifestyle adjustments, and treatment options when appropriate.

When is in-person or emergency care better than virtual stress treatment?

If you are experiencing severe anxiety, thoughts of self-harm, inability to function, or signs of a mental health crisis, immediate in-person or emergency care is the safest option.

How does virtual stress treatment fit into a busy work schedule?

Galileo is available 24/7 through the app, so you can start a phone or video visit whenever it works for you. Whether your schedule is packed or unpredictable, you can check in, get guidance, and follow up at times that fit your day, without rearranging it.

Is Online Hypertension Treatment Right for You?

Online hypertension treatment may be a good option for adults who want convenient, ongoing care for high blood pressure. Many patients use Galileo to discuss medication options, review home blood pressure readings, and manage treatment without frequent in-person visits.

This approach may work well for:

Adults with Stage 1 or Stage 2 hypertension

Seniors who want regular monitoring and medication management

Patients already taking antihypertensive medication who need prescription refills

People who track blood pressure at home and want clinician guidance

If your blood pressure readings are very high or symptoms suggest a medical emergency, in-person care may be recommended. Your clinician may also order blood or urine tests to monitor your condition and guide treatment.

Blood Pressure Medications Available Online

During your visit, a Galileo clinician will review your blood pressure readings, medical history, and other health factors before recommending treatment. Many patients benefit from medication alongside lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and stress management.

‍

Common medication classes used to treat hypertension include:

Diuretics (thiazides): Help the body remove excess sodium and fluid to lower blood pressure.

ACE inhibitors: Relax blood vessels by blocking a hormone that raises blood pressure.

ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers): Similar to ACE inhibitors but work through a slightly different pathway.

Calcium channel blockers: Help blood vessels relax and reduce strain on the heart.

Beta-blockers: Lower heart rate and reduce the force of heart contractions.

Some patients may need two or more medications to control blood pressure effectively. Your clinician will monitor your response and adjust treatment as needed.

Flu Treatment Pricing With Galileo

Galileo works with many insurance plans, including employer-sponsored benefits, and your visit may be covered depending on your coverage. If you use insurance, your copay is determined by your specific plan.
