Learn how to create, start, and manage your appointments.
Tap the "Appointments" tab in the bottom navigation bar.
There will be three sections: Pending, Upcoming, and Previous.
"Pending" Appointments are appointments waiting to be accepted either by you or the patient. Once an appointment is accepted, it will move to the "Upcoming" appointments.
"Upcoming" Appointments are appointments that are accepted by both you and your provider. You and your patient can start video calls from here.
"Previous" Appointments are a history of appointments that were scheduled before today's date.
If you want to schedule an appointment with a patient you haven't seen through Teleport, you will need to invite them to an appointment through email.
If you already saw them through Teleport, please see the section "Creating an Appointment with a Previously Seen Patient".
Enter your patient’s name, phone number, and email. Select an appointment time and then tap "Continue" to review the details. Tap "Schedule Now" to confirm the appointment. Your patient will receive an onboarding email to sign up for a Teleport account.
