In-person visit

Meet with a local eye specialist

Eye pain, vision changes, or a chronic eye condition — an eye specialist can help you understand what's going on. A General Medicine clinician reviews your history and builds a referral request, so your in-person visit starts without delay. If something's missing, we handle it before you go.

How in-person visits work

1

Browse local eye specialists

Tell us who you'd prefer, or let us choose — and we'll connect you with a local eye specialist in your area.

2

We schedule for you

After clinical review, you'll get an official referral. From there, we'll book the earliest appointment that fits your schedule and preferences, and send you the details within 2 business days.

3

Your in-person team is fully prepped

We share your health history ahead of time. And if anything comes up before or after your visit, we're a text away.

4

Get ongoing support anytime

Medications, labs, follow-ups, and referrals — we can coordinate it all. And because your history moves with you, you're never starting from scratch.

All your care in one place. That’s the General Medicine difference.

We help you understand your options, connect you to the right clinicians, manage prescriptions, coordinate any needed evaluations, and keep an eye on your overall health along the way. It’s comprehensive care that looks at the full picture — your goals, your history, your lifestyle — and makes it simple to move forward with confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a referral to book?

Whether virtual or in person, you never need a referral before booking a visit with General Medicine. For in-person visits, we reach out to specialists near you to schedule your appointment. Tell us who you'd prefer, or let us choose for you — either way, we confirm they're in-network before booking. If that specialist requires a referral, our clinical team reviews your health history and symptoms, and if it all lines up, creates a referral for you before we book. That referral is yours to keep, whether we book for you or you take it somewhere else.

How does pricing work?

Before checkout, you'll see an estimated cash and insurance price based on your specialist and plan, but you won't pay until your visit — and that amount may shift with your care needs. All you pay today is $45. $15 covers a General Medicine clinician reviewing your info and providing a referral. $30 covers scheduling coordination: confirming the specialist's in-network, booking a time that works for you, and sending your history ahead. These fees aren't covered by insurance, but are FSA/HSA eligible.

What can an in-person eye exam do that a virtual visit can't?

A full eye exam relies on equipment (like tools to check eye pressure or examine the retina) that only exists in an eye specialist's office.

What if I have sudden vision loss or severe eye pain right now?

Please don't wait on a scheduled visit — sudden vision loss, sudden flashes or floaters, or severe eye pain need emergency care. Call 911 or go to your nearest ER or eye emergency room.

What should I bring to my visit?

Your current glasses or contact prescription and any prior eye exam records — it helps your eye specialist compare against your baseline.
