Don’t miss Galileo’s own Dr. Jason Chirichigno on Episode 4 of Captivating Health Insights. He joins host Maddison Bezdicek to unpack how Galileo is redefining telemedicine—from a one-off urgent care option to a comprehensive, long-term solution for urgent, primary, chronic, and specialty care.
Here’s a preview of what they cover:
1. Bringing Care Closer
Galileo’s digital-first model removes the time, travel, and cost barriers of traditional in-person care.
“When I’m taking care of patients in rural Minnesota or Idaho,” Dr. Chirichigno shares, “these are people who don’t have access to doctors within 30 minutes, 40 minutes, an hour, or two hours.”
Even those living near a doctor aren’t guaranteed timely care—the average wait for a primary care appointment is 28 days. Same-day access often means an expensive trip to urgent care.
Galileo offers 24/7 virtual care, so you can skip the wait, the drive, and the medical bill—and get care when you need it.
2. Knowing Your Story
“Traditional telemedicine is transactional,” says Dr. Chirichigno. “I call in, I speak to a clinician who doesn’t know much about me.”
Galileo flips the script. Our providers build relationships, understand your health history, and support your long-term goals.
“Patients who experience longitudinal digital care often feel heard for the first time,” he explains. “They know they can reach us anytime, on their time—and the conversation doesn’t have to end in one session. It can unfold over days.”
The result? Care that’s continuous, personalized, and deeply human.
3. Hiring Experts & Specialists
“You have to pair access with quality—that’s the key,” says Dr. Chirichigno.
At Galileo, every clinician has 10+ years of experience. And with in-house specialists able to treat over 90% of conditions, we resolve most issues without referring patients out to expensive specialists.
More access. Better care. Fewer hoops.
