October 18, 2018 – Need to schedule an appointment? Good news! Patients of
Southeast Georgia Physician Associates-Family Medicine,
Internal Medicine,
Pediatrics and
Primary Care now have the option to schedule appointments online through the Southeast
Georgia Health System
patient portal.
“We are very happy to offer this additional feature,” says
Adam Brown, director, Physician Practices, Cooperative Healthcare Services,
Inc. “Now patients can choose to go online or call the office to
schedule their appointments. The online option is particularly convenient
for times when patients want to make an appointment and the office is
closed. Using the patient portal, they can schedule their appointment
without having to wait and call during business hours.”
The online scheduling feature is only available to established patients
of the participating practices. New patients or patients who have not
been seen in more than 18 months will need to call to schedule an appointment.
The online scheduling feature can be accessed by visiting
sghs.org. Patients then
login to their patient portal account, click on the appointment scheduling icon, answer a few questions and
then choose from the available appointment times.
Regardless of how appointments are made, all patients are given the option
to receive a text or phone call reminder. “Our goal is to always
provide excellent service,” says Brown. “We hope our patients
enjoy the benefits of these added features.”
The online appointment feature is available for the following Southeast
Georgia Physician Associates offices:
Glynn Internal Medicine;
Camden Primary Care;
Primary Care in St. Simons Island and Woodbine;
Brunswick, Camden and St. Simons Pediatrics;
Family Medicine Centers in Brantley, Glynn, McIntosh and St. Simons Island,
and the Community Care Center, all strategic affiliates of Southeast Georgia Health System. For more
