I've had telehealth appointments in the car because I'm using a break from work to make the appointment. It's bizarre that our society expects us to work 9-5, but also expects us to somehow get every necessary appointment done within that same time frame. I'm not given enough time off to run home and come back, so an appointment in the car it is.

But your point stands true. My boyfriend has a telehealth call every weekend. Our tiny apartment doesn't offer much privacy, so he gets the living room (where the computer is) while I either stay in the bedroom, or go out somewhere for an hour to give him space.
