Frequently Asked Questions About Online Healthcare Visits in Sandy Springs, GA

Can I get prescriptions through virtual healthcare visits in Sandy Springs?

Yes. If your clinician determines medication is appropriate for your condition, they can send prescriptions to a Sandy Springs–area pharmacy during your virtual visit. This includes new prescriptions and refills for ongoing medications.

Will a virtual doctor prescribe antibiotics?

Yes, if you have a bacterial infection like strep throat, a UTI, or a sinus infection. The clinician will evaluate your symptoms during the virtual visit and prescribe antibiotics when medically appropriate. Not all infections need antibiotics—many are viral and resolve on their own.

Are online healthcare visits as effective as in-person appointments?

For many conditions, yes. Virtual visits work well for respiratory infections, UTIs, skin rashes, mental health concerns, chronic disease management, medication refills, and follow-up care. Some situations require in-person evaluation—like injuries that might need imaging, physical exams for certain conditions, or symptoms that need diagnostic tests. Your clinician will let you know if you need to be seen in person.

Are online healthcare visits covered by insurance in Sandy Springs, GA?

Many insurance plans cover online healthcare visits. Coverage depends on your specific plan and whether Galileo is in-network for your benefits. Some Sandy Springs residents have virtual care included through their employer or health plan. The Galileo app shows your coverage and costs before you book.
