Can patients make an appointment with Project ECHO?

Participants in Project ECHO can present their clinical cases to our specialists or simply join other providers in the spirit of learning and professional development (similar to Grand Rounds).
Project ECHO partners include, but are not limited to:
- physicians,
- advanced practice providers,
- nurses,
- mental health professionals, and
- community health workers.
