The Difference: DPC Telehealth vs Traditional Telemedicine
When you need virtual care, who you see matters. Traditional telemedicine apps connect you with random doctors who don’t know your history. Aurora’s Direct Primary Care telehealth connects you with Dr. Malhotra, your own physician who knows your complete medical background, medications, and health goals.
Your Doctor, Not a Stranger
You see the same board-certified physician you see in person. Dr. Malhotra knows your health history, current conditions, and what works for you. There is no need to explain your story from scratch each time.
Time for
Real Care
Unlike rushed telemedicine platforms, our virtual visits give you the time you need. Appointments last 15 to 30 minutes, allowing you to discuss concerns thoroughly, ask questions, and create treatment plans together.
Direct Access Without Barriers
Text, call, or message Dr. Malhotra directly when concerns arise. Get same-day or next-day appointments without gatekeepers or long waits, all included in your membership.
What Are Telehealth Consultations?
Telehealth consultations allow you to meet with your healthcare provider remotely using secure technology. They’re ideal for non-emergency concerns, follow-up visits, and ongoing health management when traveling to the clinic isn’t possible or convenient.
With Aurora Primary Care’s telehealth services, you receive the same high-quality, personalized care you’d expect in person, just from the comfort of your home.

Real Patients, Real Results
We were visiting DC recently and our grandchild needed urgent care. Dr. Malhotra provided exceptional & compassionate care. She was warm and immediately connected with the child. Her kindness, patience, and genuine concern made all the difference during this stressful time. We’re so grateful!

Dr. Malhotra is a gem! She has gone above and beyond to offer compassionate, thoughtful care by really listening to my health concerns and helping me make informed medical choices. She has helped me navigate kidney stones and hypertension and I am healthier today because of her care. I wish I could give more than five stars!
Melanie N.
I am 55 years old and compared to my other physicians Dr. Malhotra is far superior. She is very knowledgeable, takes a practical approach to medicine, and most of all she listens. She makes it a point to follow up with all my other doctors to ensure that she has a complete picture of my health.

Dr. Malhotra is the best medical provider I've had in my 25 yrs living in the US. She listens carefully, explains in detail, does not rush, and is thorough in her examinations and overall health profile. Her global practice has exposed her to many medical conditions, including tropical illnesses I've had, and she understands alternative complementary treatments while remaining scientifically grounded. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
