remote consultation

Virtual medical visit

Remote consultation is a professional meeting conducted at a distance, typically through video, phone, or digital messaging rather than in person.

The term appears most often in healthcare, where doctors examine patients without physical presence: My doctor offered a remote consultation instead of an office visit.

Also common in legal, financial, and technical services where expertise can be delivered without face-to-face contact.
