    Telepsy­chi­a­try by www.pakpsychiatrist.com is pro­vid­ing psy­chi­atric ser­vices, via Skype, Google, etc. in which the clin­i­cian and the patient are not at the same loca­tion. Ben­e­fits to telepsy­chi­a­try include increased access to care and patient con­ve­nience. Poten­tial risks include, but may not be lim­it­ed to: infor­ma­tion trans­mit­ted may not be suf­fi­cient (poor res­o­lu­tion of video); may not pro­vide for or arrange for emer­gency care; delays in med­ical eval­u­a­tion and treat­ment due to defi­cien­cies or fail­ures of the equip­ment; secu­ri­ty pro­to­cols can fail, caus­ing a breach of pri­va­cy; and a lack of access to all the infor­ma­tion avail­able in a face to face vis­it may result in errors in med­ical judg­ment. Alter­na­tive to telepsy­chi­a­try include tra­di­tion­al face to face ses­sions which is not avail­able via this site.
