Pediatric Telehealth Alaska




Expert Care for Your Child, Anytime
It’s late. Your child has a fever, and your pediatrician’s office is closed. Or you’re three hours from Anchorage and the nearest clinic won’t see a child for days. That’s exactly why Alaska Children’s Urgent Care and Outreach built a telemedicine service for kids across Alaska.
As your online pediatrician in Alaska, we offer same-day video visits with board-certified pediatric providers. Available 8am to midnight, 7 days a week, from anywhere in the state. Whether you’re in Anchorage or a remote community, telemedicine for kids means your child gets seen today, by a pediatric specialist, without ever leaving home.

What Is Pediatric Telehealth?
Pediatric telehealth is a video visit between you, your child, and a board-certified pediatric provider conducted over a secure video connection from your home or anywhere in Alaska. In a single visit, your provider can assess your child, make a diagnosis, create a treatment plan, and send a prescription directly to your pharmacy.
At Alaska Children’s Urgent Care and Outreach, our online pediatric providers in Alaska are specialists, not general practitioners. Every provider on our telemedicine team is trained specifically in the care of newborns through adolescents. You get the same level of expertise as an in-office visit, without leaving the house, without a waiting room, and without downloading an app. All you need is a device with a camera and an internet connection.

If your child’s condition requires a physical examination or in-person evaluation, your provider will guide your family to the appropriate next step. Your child’s safety comes first.

Pediatric Telehealth for Rural and Remote Alaska Families
For families in Anchorage, getting a child to a pediatric provider means a short drive. For families in Fairbanks, the Mat-Su Valley, the Kenai Peninsula, Juneau, Kodiak, or any of the hundreds of communities not connected to the road system, it can mean a flight, a ferry, or simply going without. Alaska Children’s Urgent Care and Outreach was built to change that.
Additionally, our team developed the AAP-funded Alaska school telemedicine program, which has connected children in rural school districts across the state with board-certified pediatric providers by video. That same access is available directly to your family. Virtual pediatric care for rural Alaska communities means your child can be seen today, regardless of weather, road conditions, or how far you are from the nearest clinic.
Available 8am to midnight, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays, our telemedicine service is designed for the reality of life in Alaska, where after-hours pediatric care has always been hard to find and often impossible to reach. Alaska Children’s Urgent Care and Outreach is the only Alaska-owned, Alaska-founded pediatric telehealth provider serving the entire state.
