• Emergency Care
  Complete the form below to request telehealth visit. We will respond using your preferred method of contact. Requests submitted before 3:00pm typically receive a same-day response; requests after 3:00pm may receive a response on the next business day. More urgent matters will be given priority, but as always, if you have an emergency, please call 911 or go the nearest emergency room.
• Colonoscopy
  A colonoscopy is the first and most important step in the fight against colorectal cancer. Since the procedure involves painlessly removing pre-cancerous polyps, colonoscopies not only detect cancer, but they can also prevent it. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, so early intervention is everything. They are typically recommended beginning at age 45 or earlier if you have risk factors, like a family history of colon cancer. Men and women both should be screened for colorectal cancer at least every ten years.
• Infectious Diseases
  Signage will be posted on kiosks to reflect visitor restrictions and whether self-screening and/or masking optional or mandatory based on our transmission rate/case count and Visitor Guidelines Matrix. The kiosks and posters next to the kiosks list symptoms of potential infectious diseases.
• Electrocardiogram
  Regular check-ups that include blood pressure monitoring, cholesterol checks, and EKGs can help identify potential heart issues before they become serious. Your primary care provider can also refer you for screenings, like cardiac scoring, which is non-invasive and can be completed during a short visit. These tests can help determine if and where your heart’s blood flow is blocked.

Dermatologists

• Skin Cancer
  Skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide, but early detection can mean less invasive treatments with better outcomes. Because skin cancer is caused by sun exposure, it’s a good idea to have your skin examined by a dermatologist each year to identify suspicious moles, spots or changes that may indicate skin cancer.
• Dermatology
  Regular skin checks are crucial, especially if you have a family history of skin cancer or an increased risk of sun exposure. The family medicine team at KCH is happy to offer referrals for specialty dermatology care and provide guidance on how to increase your sun protection—reducing your risk of skin cancer in the future.
