Care, the Bouchard Way
We are committed to providing flexible, patient-centered care while ensuring you receive the right medical attention for your needs. In-person appointments remain available for Dr. Bouchard’s patients, just as they always have. Some health concerns require a physical examination, and for those, you can easily book an in-office visit. Our virtual appointments allow us to assess your concerns efficiently, helping determine when an in-person visit is necessary and when care can be provided remotely—offering you a more convenient approach to healthcare.

Healthy Living Approach
Medications are sometimes essential, but optimizing health with appropriate consideration of lifestyle changes, supplements and healthy living for primary prevention are equally important.
Convenient Virtual Services
In order to provide the most comprehensive and accessible care, Dr. Bouchard is now providing secure messaging and videoconferencing along with his current practice of convenience calls and same-day visits.
